Raybe Oh Underwent 40 Surgeries After Tanjong Pagar Accident ... (Must Share News)

Ms Raybe Oh, who ran to a burning car in Tanjong Pagar to save her boyfriend after an accident, shared her recovery process with CNA.

All she needed was determination, focus, and discipline. Since Singapore’s weather is warm and humid, she tries to stay indoors as much as possible. In an exclusive interview with Channel NewsAsia (CNA) almost 1.5 years after the accident, Ms Oh shared that she has since endured more than 40 surgeries. The brave attempt, however, proved futile and left burns on 80% of her body. Admitting that she had been too complacent with her life before the accident, Ms Oh said she decided to step out of her comfort zone to show that someone with a “strong personality” can achieve anything. Four months after the accident, Ms Oh recalled being wrapped like a “mummy” while lying in the hospital bed 24/7. She was also unable to turn her body due to the pain she was in.

Tanjong Pagar car crash: Woman who suffered serious burns wants ... (CNA)

Raybe Oh was left with burns to 80 per cent of her body after trying to help the occupants in a burning car more than a year ago.

"I know how beauty can be very important to a person. "There's more I can do without my looks. And Singapore is so hot and humid, so I’ll try to stay in as much as possible." "My throat has been hurt from all the intubation, from general anaesthesia. "I'm very happy, very glad that I have very strong support from my family and my [deceased] boyfriend's family, my close friends as well. Business seems to be going well. I was wrapped up like a mummy in a hospital," she told CNA in her first on-camera interview since the crash, as she reflected on those early months in hospital. "It's been quite tough for me because every time after the surgery, I'll be in a lot of pain. Her condition means the former air stewardess needs to avoid going outdoors if possible. They took care of me very well." The searing red blisters on her right hand are testament to the physical agony. Even physiotherapy is painful for me."

Before the accident, she would find activities to do with friends outside of work. So, I'm always a half-glass-full person. I think I'm blessed with a very cheerful character. She felt that she had been too complacent with her life before the accident, and decided that it was time for her to step out of her comfort zone. But now, to protect her skin from the sun and heat, she stays in as much as possible. Oh said she used to be "very active" before the accident.
