It's worth noting that her father was a biologist who hat taught her a lot about the Amazonian forest, so she basically knew the right things to do to survive. Still, coming out of there alive requires luck and a strong mind.
Also worth noting that she had not opted for Prime so she had no guaranteed two day delivery to civilization.

You should read her stories, it's about as bad as it gets.
She had injuries all over her body and had to let worms eat her flesh so the dead part of it wouldn't get more necrosed. She could feel the worms eat her and she also ate them for food since she couldn't find anything.
