Book about a girl who lost the use of her leg for having drunk raw milk, set in England, Young Adult Fiction. Said girl lived in a small little one bedroom it seems. Leg started getting weak all of a sudden and eventually she had to be put in this special place where children lost the use of their limbs randomly. Supposedly this book was based on a real phenomenon that occurred during this time related to raw milk. Said main character didn't realize that this lameness of limb was due to the raw milk until later on. I remember a particular scene in the book where her and other kids were gathered together and a black-and-white television was rolled in for them to watch a coronation of the queen. At one point they sung "God save the Queen" together. I read it around 2017 or earlier. It may have been a Jacqueline Wilson book but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance.
