I’ve learned it’s that the pleasure in life is doing what other people say you can’t.’ – LAUREN HUXLEY It was a shocking crime that made headlines around Australia. An innocent young woman, violently attacked in her family home by a total stranger and left to die. Beaten repeatedly and soaked with petrol as her home burned, Lauren Huxley’s life was hanging by a thread. Lauren’s battle to survive caused an outpouring of public love and support. the crime was so horrific, so senseless, anyone who read about the attack couldn’t help thinking: how could I bear someone I loved to go through this? For her father Patrick, mother Christine and sister Simone it was like being plunged into hell. Doctors gave Lauren only a five percent chance of survival. Her injuries were among the worst they had ever seen, so horrific that she was barely recognisable. But those insurmountable odds counted for little against the Huxley family’s determination, courage and love. together, they started to rebuild their shattered lives … and Lauren started coming back. this is their extraordinary story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccidental Heroes by Xavier Duff:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat indeed is bravery itself? Is it our biology or our psychology at work? Is it pure instinct or something shaped by our experiences, our education, our family, our morals? This book is an attempt to answer these questions. But it is foremost a tribute to 18 individuals who did face the ultimate test of humanity – and none of them found themselves wanting. Stories taken from that horrific night at Kuta Beach in October 2002; from the Queen Street Massacre in Melbourne in 1987; from the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race on Boxing Day 1998; to some unknown everyday people explaining life threatening situations in car accidents, at sea, in the country or being attached by a feral pig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSophie’s Journey by Sally Collings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt could have been anybodys child. ten days before Christmas. A room of children, napping on mattresses in their childcare centre, waiting for Santa to arrive. It’s a peaceful scene. Until a car crashes through the doors at head height, smashing into the midst of the sleeping children. the engine revs faster and faster; flames lick the ceiling. Incredibly, no child was killed at the Roundhouse Childcare Centre on 15 December 2003. But Sophie Delezio bears the legacy of that day written on her body. Sophie suffered third-degree burns to 85 per cent of her body in the fi re. She lost both feet, some fingers, and her right ear. Her survival was a miracle to many. two years later, the unthinkable happens: Sophie is hit by a car, and once again left with near-fatal injuries. Yet again, she defies the odds and survives. Sophie’s Journey traces the path of this remarkable young girl. It is told through the words of friends and family, hospital staff, emergency workers and high-profile supporters. the voices of Sophie’s parents, Ron and Carolyn, run through the story, describing the twists and turns of their journey so far. this book tells of a child’s resilience, of the choice between life and death, and of a strength that prevails through suffering. Sophie Delezio has a message of hope for us all. this is her story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ein good condition; covers are showing minor signs of wear; no rips, tears or marks – see photos for condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clearfix\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping cost:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003efree shipping\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery time:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eup to 5 working days\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003ePayment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe accept the following payment methods:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaypal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease contact us if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eService\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eselbe Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45052730900619,"sku":"11452 11575 11608 S10\/.36 SS","price":12.6,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/0559\/0923\/files\/57_bd3710a8-8f83-4d10-bf19-d1312fb94462.jpg?v=1767152664","url":"https:\/\/eselbebooks.com\/products\/3-x-australian-true-stories-sophies-journey-accidental-heroes-true-col","provider":"Eselbe Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
