At just the age of 23 a horrific car accident almost crushed the dreams of KZN model Neli Zuma. If it was not for her strength and courage the world would never come to know her story of resilience. The tragic accident that had Neli, fighting for her life in ICU with internal bleeding after her friend’s car span out of control and hit a wall left her with a gaping hole in her stomach. Doctors that operated on Neli said that they had no choice but to remove skin from her thigh and add it to her open wound in her stomach to prevent her from bleeding out. Listening to her story in her own words with Stacey Norman here.
