Holly Seaford, 20, had been on holiday with her partner when the accident happened on Wednesday, July 9 in the early hours.
She suffered fractured four vertebrae and remains in hospital while she recovers, Wales Online has reported.
But doctors have told her partner Tate Crees that Holly may have to wait as long as two months before she can walk again.
Tate said: “She is lying flat in a hospital bed in a back brace unable to move or walk.
“Doctors have told us it’ll be at least six to eight weeks before she can start to regain mobility.
“This is going to be a very difficult process.”
Holly and Tate had been due to fly back from holiday on the day the of the incident.
But Holly’s sister Briony has said the family can’t afford to get her back home by themselves.
She said: “She’s in a lot of pain and is bedbound.
“The last I heard they’d given her paracetamol. They can’t effectively look after her there.”
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help bring Holly back home for further medical attention.
Tate added: “Medical repatriation is incredibly expensive — especially as the only way Holly can fly home is on a stretcher.
“Requiring, a specialist medical flight with trained staff to monitor her throughout the journey.
“Unfortunately, this is not covered by insurance.”

What to do if you’re injured on holiday
No one sets off on holiday expecting to be injured, but it’s vital to be aware of what to do if accidents happen.
If you booked a package holiday, then your tour operator or organiser should have measures in place to help you if you fall ill or are injured.
But if you book your own travel and accommodation, it’s especially vital to have travel insurance in place.
Uninsured travellers can end up facing vast medical and repatriation expenses if the worst happens.
The most comprehensive travel insurance plans can help cover medical emergencies and sometimes support in returning home if needed.
Citizens Advice website says: “It’s particularly important to take out travel insurance if you are travelling independently because you may find yourself stranded with no way to get home and no-one to help sort out your holiday problem.”
