I woke up like any other day. I sat straight up and looked around‚ as I looked I thought how in the world am I not dead yet? Everyday that we woke up alive to me was a blessed day. To many it was the worst possible thing because they all just wanted to die away from the pain. Our beds were made of concrete‚ we went to bed in pain and woke up in pain and that was my life for about 7 months.
