Catholic Bernadette Barton, 58, who is almost blind and cannot walk
because of a spine problem, fractured her shoulder taking a tumble in
her hotel room.
She claims carers on the trip, paid for by St Catherine of Siena church in Didsbury, Manchester, failed to take proper care of her.
Bernadette told Manchester Civil Court she was pushed into her room and left - and fell trying to get herself out.
She added: "The usual thing is, when you're pushed into the room, you are helped out of your wheelchair.
"They don't push you somewhere and leave you. That's not how you're supposed to do it."
Her fall came at the end of a week's pilgrimage to the French shrine, famous for miracles.
