Turkey: Boating Accident and Body Parts

turkey: Speaking during a Facebook live chat with CNN, she said Losing half of my finger and getting it back was one of the best things that happened to me, according to Hamilton Spectator. If that didn't happen to me, if I didn't lose a part of myself essentially -- and I weirdly think about this when I meditate -- I wouldn't have stayed in Turkey. The 'Mean Girls' star has opened up about losing part of her limb and how if she hadn't suffered the horrific injury in a boating accident, she may never have gone to Turkey to work with refugees and been able to empathise with how they feel after losing their own body parts. I wouldn't have stayed there, and I wouldn't have understood what it feels like to lose a limb. She recently said I am deciding now if I will head back to do more work in refugee camps in Turkey and Antep during or after the New Year. The 30-year-old actress spent time working with Syrian refugees in Turkey earlier this year and is planning to go back to the country to help those in need. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
