"It will never be off my back, sadly. That's something that will live with me for ever ... I've learned a million things from that day and the years that followed it ... When something goes wrong in your life it doesn't finish you and you should become braver, knowing that you've got to go for things in life and don't regret because you didn't try to be as good as you might be."
