Three months later we find her trying to live in lockdown in an unfamiliar city with a guide dog....and Pip, the cat she adopted a week ago.
Holly Lane in Perth, Australia is doing her best not to touch anything but says that's surprisingly hard when she's "stumbling" about all day on the sticks she uses. Being a person with cerebral palsy, she has to hold onto things around her to keep her balance.
She's also cashing in on newly-discovered energy stores after cutting out her three hour commute by working from home.
Presented by Emma Tracey. Produced by Beth Rose.
