Susan Harrison's message

On this day last year 26 people passed away around me in the carriage I was trapped in.  Even though I was left severely injured, I thank God every day that I survived those terrible atrocities.  I feel no anger, just gratification that I have been given another chance to live a normal life. 

Without the bravery and skills of the emergency services that day, I would surely not have survived.  The care I have received from all involved and for those who cared for me in the aftermath has always been extremely caring, professional and of the highest caliber.  For these people I am forever grateful.

For me there are no why's or what if's.  I have learnt to let go and move on.  The love of my family and friends has carried me through and will continue to do so. 

I often think of the 52 people who died that day, thinking of how their lives were cut short.  This is why I have made a conscious decision to live my life to the full, making every moment a good one, to help others the best I can and to thank God that I am able to walk on his Holy ground once more. 

My thoughts are forever with the bereaved families and loved ones.

God Bless
