What happened to the little Vietnamese girl running from the napalm?

I spotted this article on Reddit.com today.   The little Vietnamese girl who was photographed running, terrified, naked and burned from the napalm attack recovered, grew up to become a doctor and is now living in Canada.  She has lived quite an interesting life.

    Interestingly, the AP photographer, Nick Ut, who took that picture, last Fall accompanied Pulitzer Prize winner, Connie Schultz, from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, back to Vietnam for a story on the affects, still now, of Agent Orange. It was a fascinating piece that appeared in the PD in January, with wonderful photos.
