00:39:34 floor but on the night of the fire she managed to get upstairs to the 23rd floor because she believed that help was coming from above to rescue her and my aunt Fatima her sister my mother and my
00:39:45 aunt Fatima her sister my mother and my aunt were always together they were very close they enjoyed each other's company my mother had bought a special chair that she put in front of the big windows at Grenville Tower where she and her
00:39:57 at Grenville Tower where she and her sister would sit and talk and watch the amazing views of London from up there they were to chat and eat snacks and she said it was better than any TV show I'm glad that my mother at least did not die
00:40:09 glad that my mother at least did not die alone but it terrifies me every time I think about how scared my mother and her sister must have been I know that if I had not been in a hospital myself I probably would have been with them on
00:40:20 probably would have been with them on that warm June night I spent most of my time with my lovely mother she was kind and softly spoken more quiet than her lively younger sister she was the only
00:40:32 lively younger sister she was the only one that ever really understood me I am vulnerable and I don't have many real friends I am not close to my family my mother knew how to look after me and even though she was disabled herself we
00:40:44 even though she was disabled herself we between us managed our lives we were each a piece of the missing jigsaw to the other I would come and visit my mother in a tower and it felt good to be
00:40:55 mother in a tower and it felt good to be part of the community to say hello and people knowing I was sakinah's daughter my mother was well-liked she would cook Persian food and share it with her neighbors she loved the children on her
00:41:07 neighbors she loved the children on her floor and always gave them sweets one of her neighbors told me at her funeral that she never complained when his children would knock on a door as a game and run and hide she would open the
00:41:18 game and run and hide she would open the door and greet the kids and when the parents apologized she would say don't worry they're just kids she was everyone's grandma I have lost her
00:41:29 her I have lost my only friend and protector I have lost a place to go to be safe I am lost the thing is losing a mother is hard enough losing a mother in these
00:41:40 hard enough losing a mother in these circumstances is horrific but losing a mother who was your only shield from the world is something else because that is what she was with my problems and issues my mother was my anchor my protector my
00:41:51 my mother was my anchor my protector my only true friend my mother liked to sing she laughed at my jokes she made excuses for my behavior and she always stood up to anyone who criticized
00:42:02 always stood up to anyone who criticized me she made me feel secure and safe and she loved me unconditionally I knew I always had somewhere to go when I was lonely now I'm always lonely in the
00:42:13 lonely now I'm always lonely in the first few days after the fire I used to just walk around at our perimeter and wail and cry now I go to the cemetery I put some plastic flowers on her grave and a lamp to light her way we buried a
00:42:27 and a lamp to light her way we buried a tooth and a small piece of her jawbone that is all they found of my mother why did they let everyone burn so we do not have bodies to bury I have so many questions I want to know why they didn't
00:42:39 questions I want to know why they didn't rescue them everyone thinks I don't understand anything they ignore me but I understand this much there was a terrible fire and no one came for them they were left to burn
00:42:51 one came for them they were left to burn to ashes now all I have is my memories my mother's cooking her warmth and kindly smiles she understood me the only person in my life that loved me
00:43:02 person in my life that loved me unconditionally and the only person that will probably ever love me that way she is gone
00:43:07 is gone and I have no one I am very very lonely and I'm invisible God rest your soul my dear mother may God grant you peace I wish I could have been there that night
00:43:18 wish I could have been there that night I would have saved you and your sister and I would have helped you down the stairs I would not have left your side just as you never left my I miss you I will always love you unconditionally

02:04:53 commemorating so I wonder first of all if you just tell us a little bit about your mum well my mother was a headmistress of primary school back in Sudan she was married to a military
02:05:07 Sudan she was married to a military officer and we had a very lovely childhood well looked after well cared for
02:05:19 for enjoyed ourselves very much in a very loving secured family my father was killed back in the early 80s

02:05:49 we came to England um my mother my brother Frost's and my sister it's wrong and my eldest brother and sister he
02:06:03 and my eldest brother and sister he Monica's him went to Romania to study we enjoyed our time in England we love

02:06:29 happy as a as a family and my mother worked hard in a foreign land to keep us together she wasn't working she identified that when you come as an
02:06:43 identified that when you come as an adult with children to a foreign country it's a very difficult thing to cope with so she wasn't working but she tried her
02:06:58 so she wasn't working but she tried her best to keep us looked after and secured so it wasn't very easy as we are growing

02:07:51 family of course we have a view of them but seeing through the eyes of their friends can sometimes give us a different picture what would your mom's friends have said about her she was a very loving person
02:08:06 about her she was a very loving person very caring excellent communication skills great sense of humor yeah what
02:08:18 skills great sense of humor yeah what about through the eyes of her son well she was my mother
