Australian Turia Pitt, 24, had it all: a successful career, a partner, and beauty.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
The girl\u2019s life significantly turned on September 2, 2011, when she almost perished in a fire.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, Turia could not only survive the disaster but also improve her quality of life.<\/p>\n
that RacingThePlanet was holding that September day. The competitors could only cover a fourth of the distance before the nearby grass and bushes took fire.<\/p>\n
Although these kinds of fires are frequent in Australia this time of year, the organizers neglected to take safety precautions beforehand, and numerous athletes, including Turia, were engulfed in flames.<\/p>\n
Turia was one of the contestants in the Miss Australia competition and had a career as a model before the catastrophe. She worked as a mining engineer in a diamond mine.<\/p>\n
She dated Michael, a high school classmate.<\/p>\n
The girl said that she lived up to her wildest expectations. But in a split second, everything was altered. She remembered asking herself why the doctors saved her life during that horrible time in the hospital.<\/p>\n
Turia stayed in hospitals for a total of 864 days. More than 200 procedures were performed on her, including one to repair her nearly entirely burned-out nose. Amputating five fingers was necessary.<\/p>\n
The injuries gradually recovered. Turia, however, could not force herself to leave the house. She had the impression that her deformed hands and face would draw the notice of others.<\/p>\n
