When 23 year old Bella Fidler went on a girls trip to Bali last December, she thought everything would be fine. They'd lay by the pool, drink cocktails & make memories to last a lifetime. 

But instead, when they flew home, Bella and her friends had no idea about the unwelcome stowaway coming back with them. Bella contracted a deadly disease from the island paradise and upon returning home she walked into a Gold Coast hospital...and never left.
