This is a
story of extraordinary young women with a lot to live for. Turia Pitt, a 25yr
old mining engineer working in far north Western Australia. She took part in an
ultra marathon race where she got caught in a horrific grass fire and was left
with burns to over half of her body. Through a long and harrowing
rehabilitation, with the support of many people and her strong will and
determination to live she has triumphed. She has made it one of her missions to
encourage skin to be a more prominent organ for people to donate.
Everything to live for is a story
of determination and resilience of the human spirit. I really enjoyed this
story of resilience and strength, Turia is truly beautiful. The book inspired
me with my own struggles, an example when you see how well Turia preserved with
her physiotherapy to be extremely fit again. Anne.
