A remarkable woman

I seldom watch the Oprah show but a few days ago something on the show got me interested. Oprah was interviewing a woman who was mauled by a chimpanzee. She survived that incident but suffered horrific injuries, especially to the face. During the interview, her face was covered with a cloth but it was visible as the cloth was transparent. From what I saw, its not a face anymore. It looked so terrible that it was unbearable. I couldn't bear to watch and turned to other channels after a while.
I was told that later the woman removed the cover and showed her face to the audience. I just cannot imagine what its like. Even now I shudder at the thought. I salute her for her bravery.
