Gina in July 2020. The O’Regan family is a close-knit family, and when Gina divorced her husband, she moved in with her sister Reed to live in Chorley. Gina described it as a “safe place”, saying: “My sister was there, Paul was there. He was kind to me. He would help with the housework and if they went out he would invite me along.” But when Reed drank a drink, the sisters said that his character had changed and that he would become vindictive, guided and controlled. Jacquie said, “I got to the point where I stopped going out with him.” He continued: “Every time there would be something at the end of the night, a quarrel with a taxi driver or some kind of disagreement.” On July 26, 2020, the family planned a meeting at the sister’s house with the men gathering at Jacquie’s house to watch sports and both the sisters and their mom enjoying a manicured night at Gina’s.

He was nervous, conflicted and wanted a turn. He clapped his hands and said ‘right … the Black Lives Matter? It was like, “Here’s Let’s start.” Reed continued to shout for the church and for the singer Prince, to whom he made obscene allegations. Gina described the situation as “heated”. Gina said: “My brother Eugene left and I, my other brother Adrian and my nephew Jack came back to my house, but I heard Zaki next to her saying ‘don’t push me’. Jacquie asked him why he “ruined a wonderful night”. He said: “He was right in front of me and he was so angry that saliva came out of his mouth and he was shouting at me. He pushed me and he had never been physically violent with me before. It was shocking. “Gina, my brother and my nephew were standing in the next atrium listening to me shout.” Gina refused to leave her there. She explained: “I came in again and said ‘enough. Stop’.” Reed snatched Gina from her top and threw her on the couch, punching her. Adrian’s brother pulled her to safety and Jack’s nephew held Reed. As things seemed to calm down, Jack left Reed, but he jumped up and snatched a piece of jewelry from the conservatory window sill. Jacquie said: “He pulled it back with his hand so hard, I shouted ‘no’. We were in a conservatory. It would hurt something or someone.” As the vase hit Gina’s face, her vision immediately disappeared. Blood spilled on her face and her iris hung from the slot in her cheek. He said: “My world has turned black. The momentum of pain and panic I felt as I hold my eye as blood is spilled on my face will never leave me. I was afraid of who in my family would be harmed next.” Gina was taken to the Wigan Royal Infirmary before being taken to Manchester Eye Hospital for further treatment. The surgeons fought to save her shrinking eyeball, and tried to save her vision. Unfortunately she never saw with her left eye again. In October 2020, after three surgeries, doctors announced to Gina that her vision would never return. Gina Wynial before being attacked by Paul Reed Gina said: “Every time, we would think ‘this time maybe’, but then you come after the operation and nothing has changed. It is devastating for the soul.” Jacquie said: “I felt responsible. This was the worst part. I felt awful that my sister would never see her again. “Our dad was dying of cancer. It was a very difficult time.” Gina said: “I was afraid to call my son in Australia and tell him via Facetime why I looked like that and I was trying to explain the injuries Paul had caused me. “I had to tell him that I could not use the plane tickets he had bought for my 50th birthday to go see my grandson because I no longer felt confident or able to make the trip with such very limited vision.” The day after the attack, Jacquie spoke to Reid and told him that Gina could lose her sight. He said Reed became aggressive before packing his bags and leaving for Ireland. He said: “I have never seen him again. A 17-year-old relationship is gone. “Two weeks later he alerted me for an hour to tell me he was coming to pick up his things. There was a truck outside with two lads inside and they were waiting. What he had, I had picked up ready to pick up. When he got home , I panicked and ran to ask a neighbor to help me get his bags on the street.Everything was put in bags, labels and wrapped.That’s how I was set up. “He showed up and came to the front door. He asked for his TV and so I gave him his TV. He asked for the Virgin boxes and then in that order he asked for his Nutribullet, the fridge magnets and his mugs. “After that he just said, ‘How is Gina?’ I said, ‘How dare you?’ He did not show any remorse. Gina said: “I never blocked him in anything. I left all the channels open to apologize to him. He told the court that he wanted to apologize, but he was told not to do so. Only a year later some conditions were set.” Gina is now rebuilding her life, but says the impact of the attack is still great. She changed her role with Parcelforce, where she works for 30 years, to work from home in a role that does not face the client, as she felt uncomfortable with the people who looked her in the eye and had to learn to drive again with a modified vehicle . He continued: “Things are simple. I can not cast a shadow because you have to close one eye and I do not see. Shaving under my arms is difficult. Gina Winial has been left blind in one eye after being thrown a jar “Some days I feel better, but there are days when my eye hurts or itches. I’m just happy to have such a good family and good friends. I’m very happy to have these people help me along the way.” Doctors made a colored contact lens to improve the appearance of Gina’s eye, but her left eye is visibly smaller than her right. He said: “I feel conscious and ashamed, especially since a male colleague who saw me said, without meaning anything bad, ‘your eyes were one of your best features.’ That hurt so much. “ Gina has been so frightened by the attack that she has been given extra security in her home and has set up an immediate police alert. He said: “The only thing I always said was ‘when I die they can take everything except my eyes’. I had beautiful, big brown eyes. Not anymore”. Paul Reid was sentenced to 28 months in prison for assaulting Gina after admitting to grievous bodily harm. Gina said: “I’m glad he was right. I’m glad he has that in his file. a way of life to adapt “. Jacquie added: “He presented himself as a professional. He was a good forklift trainer and people liked him but did not see this other side of him. He was exposed in court.
