Pushkin. She was a decorated veteran, a marine who saved her comrades a hero.
She had been in a convoy and her vehicle was hit by an ID. The door from the humphe like crushed her hip.
I was just like, goodness, gracious, the amount of tragedy in trauma. I just resolved like I am gonna do everything that I can do to help you.
She was stoic, modest, tough, someone who inspired people.
I liked her. I liked her a lot. She worked really hard and she was really humble. She was injured and everybody knew it, but she was still running.
I distinctly remember her saying, if I'm going to have to have my leg amputated, then I'm gonna make this bitch give me every last ounce of what it's got to give.
There were also moments when she said things that seemed a little off or just didn't add up, but no one called her on it, at least not at first.
That's kind of like if you had a friend that told you that she'd had a miscarriage, the very last thing that you're going to do to that friend while she's crying about losing a baby is ask her if that actually happened. Everyone thought they knew her until they didn't.
Picked up the phone just to check my messages before I went back to work, and that she said, you need to come home. The FBI is here.
I remember sitting on her couch and asking her, is this real?
Is this real? Is this real? Is this real?
I just couldn't wrap my head around what kind of person would do that to another person that was getting treatment, that was, you know, dying.
This is a story all about trust and about a woman named Sarah Cavanaugh.
When you live two separate lives for so long, it feels normal.
Who's decided to share her side.
Of the story.
I've always been told I'm a really good listener, right, and I maximize that people. When you create space, people fill that space.
