I’m a little sore but the medics here were fantastic and got me all wrapped up and back on the road.” She added: “People back home have no idea how lucky we have it, I believe everyone needs to come over here and see what our brave men and women are doing for us. Not a day has passed that tears have not run down our faces.”.. [reported by Mike Aldren]
