This is me at 13, mere months before I was wounded on October 18th, 1992. I plan to walk 32 km to commemorate the 32nd anniversary of that day. I plan to make it a day of action & strength. Please help me reach my fundraising goal with @UNICEF .

A CBC News crew was in Adiyaman, Turkey, the moment a woman was rescued after being trapped in earthquake rubble for four full days.
A rescue crew from Burnaby, B.C., was part of the effort to save her.
