A brave firefighter has told of the distressing scenes she responded to while responding to devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. Emma Atcherley, is based in Cardiff and is a crew manager South Wales Fire and Rescue Service.
The hero also volunteers as part of the United Kingdom International Search and Rescue Team (UK-ISAR) and witnessed the destruction in the Middle East first hand in February this year, with some incidents staying with her forever, reports Wales Online.
One particular rescue mission saw a woman saved by Emma and her crew after she had survived solely by drinking her own urine as her building had collapsed under the weight of the decimation of the natural disaster.
