00:00 Yes, so I slipped on a puddle on the platform
00:05 and crashed against a stationary train,
00:08 fell through the gap in between the train and the platform.
00:12 I injured myself badly enough to break a nose in my two front teeth
00:17 and then the train departed and took my right arm with it.
00:23 I was conscious throughout and I shouted for help
00:27 and nobody heard me and a second train came into the platform
00:32 and claimed my right leg.
00:35 I was still conscious after that, still determined to make it home
00:39 because in my mind's eye I could see my two daughters
00:42 and they were telling me, "Mummy, you have to come home.
00:45 What are you doing?"
00:47 And at that point somebody heard me.
00:51 [Silence]
00:54 [BLANK_AUDIO]
