In April 2018, Lourdes Cuello, 50, from New Jersey, US, was making a cup of tea when her hair and hoodie caught fire on her gas stove. She suffered third-degree burns to her neck, chest, left shoulder and armpit and was hospitalised for six weeks. During that time, she endured two skin grafts surgeries and had to relearn how to walk. Over six years on, Lourdes can't drive due to the lack of mobility in her neck, and she never uses the stove when she's home alone. Thankfully, she has otherwise recovered well.
