I survived a plane crash - with 65% burns - shake my beauty

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
JUST one of two survivors from a plane crash, Kechi Okwuchi is used to overcoming adversity. The 30-year-old has gone on to appear on America-s Got Talent, where she wowed the judges with her beautiful voice and as a motivational speaker, sharing her story to motivate others that their scars - whether visible or invisible - don-t define them. When she was just 16, Kechi was flying back from boarding school for the Christmas holidays to Abuja, Nigeria with 60 of her fellow schoolmates. The Sosoliso Airlines Flight 1145 crashed and out of the 109 passengers on the plane, only two survived. Kechi was one of them. Suffering third-degree burns on 65% of her body, Kechi had extensive skin grafts taken from her back and torso - the part of her body that didn-t burn. Kechi and her family moved from Nigeria to the US for medical treatment and to date she has had 100-plus reconstructive surgeries. An unexpected result of the crash and her injuries was that Kechi discovered a new voice - while she could sing before, all of a sudden Kechi-s voice was getting everyone-s attention. Her best friend entered Kechi into America-s Got Talent and since then Kechi has started writing her own music as well as motivational speaking

I love my sister Lord knows I do and I listen and the first thing she mentioned in the video was how she was into her looks God allowed her to survive but took away that beauty she was so prideful in and the only thing she can come up with is that her scars don't define who she is when in reality it was your looks that don't define who You are it's how you treat people and that's all I want to say. Like God says beauty is vain and she was into her looks it's your inner beauty that makes a difference

Oh my gosh out of 109 only 2 survived. I can't even try to imagine the pain they experienced/what the family had to endure. But I just hope the families were just able to go on in life and find some kind of peace just remember the happy times spent with their loved ones.
If I was her too I would be living the rest of my life to fullest because not everyone got a second chance to live going through something so tragic.

Da-n this woman knows how to make someone cry. This is the second video I've ever watched that actually made me cry like a baby, the second one was the extraordinary case of Alex Lewis. If you haven't seen that documentary, I suggest you give it a watch.
