On the plus side, the survivors' group has been marvellous. We keep in touch all the time and my involvement has given me something to get up for in the mornings. We are not all totally depressed at the same time, so those in high spirits can lift those who are feeling low. I have made great friends with people who perhaps I would not normally have had much in common with. Formerly a pension adviser, Mrs Warren has no thoughts yet about going back to work.
Washing is difficult.
She has little feeling in her hands. But even if the mental scars remain, Mrs Warren is thrilled with the way her body is healing. I looked at some wounds and thought they would never clear up. One emotion that never goes away is anger. Enough is enough.
