A wedding dress designer who lost both of her legs and an arm when she was thrown from her tractor and run over saved her own life by fighting through the pain to call for help.
Claire McKenzie, a 61-year-old mum, was alone on her property just before midday on Thursday when she came off her tractor and was run over by the slasher.
Ms McKenzie, who neighbours described as a "quiet lady with a love of nature", had bought the tractor and slasher to maintain her 50 hectare property in Ballandean, in Queensland s Granite Belt region, during bushfire season.
