She survived the tragedy but lost her left hand and eye.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m just overwhelmed with gratefulness and so glad I\u2019m here,\u201d the new mother said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insideedition.com\/model-lauren-scruggs-who-lost-hand-and-eye-in-2011-propeller-accident-is-now-a-mom-74950\">according<\/a> to Inside Edition.<\/p>\n<p>Scruggs had to have numerous surgeries following the incident, and recently battled new fears, namely being a mother with only one hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow am I going to be a mom with one hand?\u201d the model questioned.<\/p>\n<p>Surfer Bethany Hamilton, who lost an arm to a shark attack, assured her friend she\u2019d be able to handle it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was like, \u2018Lo, you will just figure it out,\u201d Scruggs recalled. \u201cIt will just come to you and you\u2019ll know.\u2019 It really has been that way, truly, your body just figures it out and it just becomes so natural.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cc3r7m0PFC2\/?utm_source=ig_embed&#038;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>The model opened up about the life-changing incident back in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember getting into the plane, and I was kind of fearful,\u2019\u2019 Scruggs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/news\/lauren-scruggs-i-felt-something-was-going-happen-night-accident-1c7114285\">told<\/a> TODAY host Savannah Guthrie. \u201cI didn\u2019t know why. I just felt like something was going to happen, and we landed and I thought that was interesting because I was just thinking we were going to crash. I just remember my feet touching the ground, and that\u2019s all I remember.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The sunny then-24-year-old, who has a prosthetic hand and left eye, said losing her hand was the biggest challenge she faced, but her \u201cjoy\u201d and \u201ccompassion\u201d have only strengthened.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cI think the hardest thing is just losing my hand, because it just changes your life and you have to learn things in new ways, but it\u2019s also a good thing and a positive thing because you appreciate life a lot more,\u2019\u2019 she said. \u201cI feel like my joy in life has intensified, my compassion for people has just strengthened. I have compassion that I wouldn\u2019t have had before.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cI\u2019m feeling really well,\u2019\u2019 Scruggs said at the time, just one year after the incident. \u201cI\u2019m still doing rehab every day. They\u2019re actually just working me out very hard. I love it \u2014 off all pain medication, and just spiritually I feel a lot deeper in my faith.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cIt\u2019s amazing the way your body just kind of does what it needs to do. Things that are really difficult at the beginning I don\u2019t really think about it anymore, and they\u2019re easy to do, so I\u2019m thankful for that,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/05\/20\/lauren-scruggs-former-model-fantastic-walking-airplane-propeller-eye\/\">H\/t<\/a> The Daily Caller\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Model Lauren Scruggs Kennedy and her husband, former E!
