Facing the World

The pain Stephanie Browitt has endured defies description. When New Zealand's White Island volcano erupted in December 2019 she suffered horrific burns. Since then she has had dozens of excruciating surgeries and skin grafts. But for Stephanie, now 26, the greatest agony has been the loss of her father Paul, and sister Krystal, who were killed in the disaster. Throughout what has been an awful time, Steph has always tried to be optimistic, and on 60 MINUTES this Sunday she wants to share a moment of triumph. The never-ending reminder of her injuries – those uncomfortable compression suits and masks she's been wrapped up in – are finally coming off. The world is about to see why, inside and out, Stephanie Browitt is truly beautiful.
