This post has nothing to do with Management or anything like that but I just had to write it.

Last night on British TV was a programme that was sad, shocking and truly inspirational. It’s the first time, I have written about such a TV programme but just had to.

If you saw the program you will understand why.

It was about a beautiful young lady called Katie Piper.

Katie was a model, a TV presenter and simply enjoying life.

Then while out one day, a ‘stranger’ threw sulphuric acid in her face.

Only a few weeks before the incident she had started dating a guy. She wanted to end the relationship. He didn’t.

He decided to hire someone to scar her for life and that’s what led to the sulphuric acid episode.

At first after the attack, she was unable to speak or see and wrote notes like “Where am I?” “Am I blind?” “Am I dead?” “Help me!” and “Kill me!”

Her face was rebuilt. She had endured many operations over 14 months of hell and now wears a transparent pressure mask 23 hours a day to reduce scarring.

Katie says, “I now have more medical supplies than I do shoes and handbags. I’m really boring, aren’t I?”

But, besides everything Katie has gone through, she is bright and cheerful. She has a bubbly infectious personally that no amount of sulphuric acid can dampen.

Katie is a truly amazing young lady, an inspiration to us all and a beautiful person.

The video below shows Katie before and after the terrible incident. If you are squeamish don’t watch.
