Taking to Instagram with a bandaged photo from Royal North Shore Hospital, the former Today Tonight reporter recalled the horror moment she was rushed to hospital after the freak accident.In the caption, she described going about her normal ritual of grabbing a coffee after the school drop off, until something spooked her and she jumped, spilling her drink. She said the incident occurred “very quickly”.“I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It all happened so quickly – not sure if it was a bird or a falling tree branch – but whatever it was shocked me and I jumped,” she recalled.“The contents of my cup – a freshly made boiling long black tipped onto my throat and chest, immediately burning the skin right off and causing very deep burns.”The 48-year-old media personality told followers she is resting at home awaiting further treatment, going on to thank frontline health workers for their care. “When all the bandages come off I’ll know more about ongoing care and next steps with the burns specialist,” she said.“As always, our frontline health workers are so amazing. From the ambulance guys to all the doctors, nurses and staff in the emergency room – we are so fortunate to live in a country with such amazing medical help,” she added.Celeb pals including Jack Vidgen and Rebecca Gibney shared their well wishes in the comments.“Oh hunni i’m so sorry! Thinking of you,” said Masked Singer star Vidgen, while Gibney wrote: “Oh honey that’s awful … sending big love.”Former Home and Away star Christie Hayes added: “Oh beautiful Sal sending you so much love, how scary. So glad you’re resting up at home. Thinking of you as you heal with the next steps.”
