Thanking all the healthcare teams, Mother Olcan Özışık explained her son’s experience as follows:
* May Allah give immediate healing to all and give patience to the families of the deceased. My son is 15 years old. I was at Alsancak State Hospital with his brother Tanay during the earthquake. His father was also working, Günay was at home. His cousin came with him and the two of them were sitting at home.
* When the earthquake happened, I immediately called Günay. I heard him pick up the phone and yell ‘Anneee’. At that moment the building collapsed and was buried under rubble. I called my wife and told her to go home, we couldn’t get to Günay.
* It took me 2 hours to get home from the hospital due to traffic. I saw the destroyed building, I thought how my son would get out of there. Thank God the rescuers, police and paramedics took my son out 10 hours later. Now in intensive care they are trying to save his legs, his kidneys are injured. It will be saved by the license of Allah. Thank God for that.
REGISTERED BY PHONE
Noting that her son was waiting under the rubble in cold blood, the mother said:
* A very conscientious and intelligent child. He never got carried away, while he was under the rubble, he had a cell phone to talk to me on the phone and he took pictures around him.
* He called 112 4 times. We saw this today when I plugged in the phone. He sent me voice messages; He said, ‘Mom, I’m under the rubble. None of them reached me.
* When he heard that his cousin was rescued, he yelled: ‘Ahmet, I’m here too, save me too. His cousin was leaving the classroom during the earthquake and he was probably leaving his room. His cousin was rescued 2 hours later. Gunay was later contacted. His legs and waist down are crushed under the spine. (DHA)
