In 2001, Athanasia Houvarda was happily married and had her own business. One hot summers day in Greece, whilst on the way to the beach, she lost it all in a horrific car accident. Athanasia lost friends, her relationship and suffered burns to 74% of her body. After a transfer to the UK for better quality care, two long months in ICU and enduring countless surgeries, she beats the odds and went from “burns victim” to “burns survivor”.
We chat about;
- the realities of burn recovery and rehab
- if skin grafts from your scalp result in the requirement to blow wave your wrist
- her badass mum (mom to the American audience) and the importance of art therapy.
After a difficult divorce, rehabilitation and subsequent cancer diagnosis, which she also won, Athanasia is now a celebrated artist, living in Canada with her new husband, who is also a burns survivor.
WARNING: Car accident detailed and burns recovery story. Not suitable for children.
