"I don't even think about it," Nash said on Wednesday's episode of Winfrey's show. "And there's no time for that anyways because I need to heal, you know, not look backwards."

Nash told Winfrey that she is blind, eats through a straw, and has only partial use of her mauled hands. She hopes to get a face and hand transplant in the future.
Nash was attacked by her friend's pet chimpanzee back on Feb. 16, 2009. The attack happened at the home of the animal's owner, Sandra Herold.
The chimp ripped off Nash's hands, nose, lips and eyelids.
Police responded to a 911 call and shot and killed the animal.
