It was hot and humid, the music was pumping and everyone was talking, laughing and dancing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeated behind the sunken bar, I struck up conversation with two Australian girls. Suddenly, a deafening explosion rocked the Legian beach strip. We looked south towards Paddy's Bar and witnessed a black mushroom cloud of smoke rise from the roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSomeone shouted, \u003cem\u003e 'What the hell was that?'\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly seconds later, the Bintang bottle in my hand shattered, as a powerful car bomb ripped apart the Sari Club.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI was buried alive and fighting for my life!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis despicable attack was carried out by the Jemaah Islamiyah terrorist network. It claimed the lives of 202 people, including 88 Australians. 240 were wounded, including me. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuffering severe burns to 60% of my body, I also had to cope with shrapnel injuries, bi-lateral hearing loss, swelling on the brain and severe infection. After being told that I would not survive, I spent 44 days in an induced coma, fighting to stay alive. When I finally learned to walk again and regain movement in all parts of my body, I was the last Bali bombings survivor to leave a Western Australian hospital...some 2 months and 21 days after first being admitted. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no doubt that severe burn injuries have the potential to be soul-destroying. However, with careful management and an excellent support base, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eyou can recover and go on to lead a relatively normal, happy and fulfilled life. I hope this book provides some inspiration to those of you who have suffered the indignity of burn injuries, but have had the great fortune to survive them!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e50% of proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Fiona Wood Foundation.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 154\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 06, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52448180240691,"sku":"9780645592405","price":30.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/YlloQnU5NjhzRmdGaDFIbDJzWGd1dz09.webp?v=1759031887","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/phoenix-rising-terror-victim-to-burn-survivor-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
