Yeah.
And I like to say that...
Leah was definitely more unlucky than she was lucky.
She was doing all the right things, swimming close to shore on a busy day, on a really clear day.
Between the flags.
Between the flags of all things, yeah.
And I spend a lot of time in the water.
So I would say there's a lot more likelihood that I was going to be confronted with that situation than someone living out at Wagga.
Yeah, yeah.
I think it is a pretty great coincidence that someone that does feel as confident in the water as I do has had the training that I've had.
And coming back to the upbringing that I've had that allowed me to stay in the water, I think that was pretty lucky.
And I don't think of this as something that happened to me.
I think of this as something that happened to Leah.
And I'm grateful that I was nearby and able to do something to help.
So finding out yesterday that she had woken up and said a few words to her family was a pretty big moment for me, a pretty emotional moment for me because it made me know that what I did actually did contribute to something.
But at the same time, I'm not going through anything right now relative to what her and her family are actually going through.
And I would want to find out how she could get back to, in the closest way she could, to her normal life with her daughter and, and yeah, I, again, I don't, I don't know a lot of detail about Leah.
I haven't been able to communicate with the family because they've got plenty going on.
But I want her to get back to being able to do the things she loves.
