VIETNAM -Una historia extraordinaria
Remember the photo of a 7 year old girl running naked down the road during a South Vietnamese attack?
This Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph titled, “The Terror of War” has an update.
The girl, Phan Thị Kim Phuc, suffered sever burns from the attack. ; unna anecdota extraordinari-Ua
The very same photographer Nick Ut saved Phúc’s life by rushing her to the nearest hospital and demanding treatment holding his American press credentials.
Phan Thị Kim Phuc is now 51 years old and now a doctor and mother of two.
She has finally overcome the events of the photo. She told the Huffington Post, “I have a husband and a new life and want to be normal like everyone else.”
Another interesting fact is that as a teenager, Kim Phuc was accepted into medical school but was forced to quit because of the new communist regime. Ultimately, in 1982, Vietnam’s prime minister sent her to Cuba to study medicine.
