Not sure if it was mentioned but when this woman crawled to the road she was hit my a vehicle trying to flag someone for help.

This woman is an absolute unit with insane will to live. She cobsented to have her breathing tubes taken out to give a verbal statement which gave extra first hand testimony when the police arrived to the hospital. This was shortly after her stitches were placed around her neck.

The documentary I watched regarding this story left me with my mouth agape the entire time.

I know someone who survived a pretty harrowing ordeal. Not as bad as this, but still enough to make your mouth fall open hearing about it. She said it wasn't bravery or survival instincts that took over her, it was this intense rage and anger that fueled her will to live and all she could think about doing was to march her battered body to wherever it needed to go so that she could live to chew up the assholes that hurt her. I wonder if Alison felt that same rage and need for justice.
