A
Visual Story of A Burn Survivor From A DIC Motor Vehicle Accident
Warning! Please
Take Note: These pictures are very graphic but Miss Saburido has obviously
allowed them to be published and circulated over the net with the express
purpose of warning people of the dangers of drink driving! We would like
to add that all careless behaviour can result in "preventable burn related
accidents". Please take care and think before you engage in any
potentially harmful pursuits. It's not just your life you are putting at
risk - but also innocent third parties just like Jacqueline Saburido.
