Through a series of events that went wrong while cooking dinner at her apartment in Thailand on 11 April, 2018 Victoria was rushed to a Thai hospital suffering 30% burns to her upper body. 37 year old Victoria is sharing her story through the Coober Pedy Regional Times, reaching out to thank many of those who came to her aid and to perhaps inspire others who may be facing a serious life challenge of their own. Throughout this ordeal (far from over) Victoria has shown strength and courage that might rival some of history’s finest women warriors. Victoria relived her ordeal for our story: “I was heating up a pot of oil on a portable burner, which is what I use for cooking at home in Chiang Mai Thailand. I had the window open and the was fan on! Margaret Mackay © “While the oil was heating I was dashing around doing washing and other things. Suddenly I noticed smoke and Victoria Nikoloudis just discharged from the Adelaide Burns Unit and at ‘home’ in Coober Pedy with saw the oil was on fire.
