It was my daughter's 20th birthday. I was very pleased to have been able to phone her at her University in Belfast to tell her "happy birthday" and that I loved her before the attack happened. In a few hours I didn't know if I'd ever see her again. I didn't know if I'd ever get back to my family; I didn't know what was happening. It was two months before I was confident to fly back to them.
