They lined us all up in chairs and we went down the line introducing ourselves. I was the last one in the line. When it was my turn, suddenly I was overcome with emotion. I was too choked up to even say my name. I stood up but could only muster, “I can’t talk.” And I sat back down. I don’t know where it was coming from, but my emotions were powerful and paralyzing. Everyone carried on with the question-and-answer session and I just sat there taking deep breaths, trying to regain my composure. Finally, after I was sure my voice was steady and my tears were dry, I stood up and said that I’d like to speak. “I don’t remember coming through here, but I haven’t felt this emotional anywhere else. I know none of you were here when I came through or when these other guys came through, but you’re doing the same job. You’re doing it for other guys here now and I just want to say thank you for what you do, what you have to see day in and day out, not knowing how things go afterwards. I hope that with our being here, you’re able to see that we do move on. We do recover. And I wanted to say thank you.” I barely made it through the last few words before I choked up again. Tears streamed steadily down my cheeks. I looked around and everyone else was crying, too. Every guy in our group as well as every doctor and nurse. It was emotional for all of us.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Noah Galloway" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/noah-galloway/when-we-arrived-they-led-us-into-a-room-to-meet-privately-with-some/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/055/noah-galloway-8545_quote_when-we-arrived-they-led-us-into-a-room_1305793.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/055/noah-galloway-8545_quote_when-we-arrived-they-led-us-into-a-room_1305793.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/055/noah-galloway-8545_quote_when-we-arrived-they-led-us-into-a-room_1305793.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“When we arrived they led us into a room to meet privately with some of the nurses and doctors.
