This is a story to inspire you to reach for your dreams.

Many years ago Sarah came a close 2nd in the 1949 Miss USA competition. Later that year she emigrated and was beset by a long period of bad luck.

She suffered years of drug and alcohol abuse and a series of eating disorders, she lost a leg and needed facial reconstruction surgery after a road traffic accident. Later, she suffered 90% burns in an unprovoked acid attack. Several teeth were knocked out and an eye gouged in a bitch fight outside a Chicken Cottage. The stress caused severe hair loss and facial warts. But she never stopped believing.

And then finally last week she was crowned Miss Scotland 2013.

To be fair, what with the anorexia and the lost leg, the 90% burns isn't THAT bad!! She was lucky, really!!

Still done well for 'ersen, though... I'll give 'er that!
