And all the others who fell along the way. Rest in peace.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I WOULD LIKE to thank the many people who helped me through the last eleven and a half years of my life, which were extremely hard at times, not only on me but more so on those around me.
Firstly, I would like to thank Sara Cywinski from Ebury Publishing for having chosen to publish my book, and also Liz Marvin for the fantastic job you have done of editing and moulding my writing. All the rest of the people who have worked on the book who I am not even aware of are due a big thank you as well.
Of course, none of this would have happened without Shaun Barrington. Thanks Shaun.
I wish to say a huge thank you to Mary Moore for typing all the chapters of the book, and making untold corrections and amendments. Not only that but also all your support both financially and morally throughout my life. Thank you so much.
I want to thank my father for supporting me both mentally and financially through the years and fighting to get me repatriated: I can never tell you just how sorry I am and how very much I care for you. Thanks also to my sister who also stayed in contact, giving me much-needed support.
A very big thank you to the staff of the British embassy in Ecuador for all your help and support throughout my time in prison. I particularly want to thank Sofie Deeks, Veronica Ruiz and Annika Dann. An especially big thank you to Rocío Torre CBE in Guayaquil. You undoubtedly saved my life and made it much easier to survive the harsh conditions we faced. You helped so many people.
Mercedes Quezada Lopez, you truly are an angel. A most amazing woman who has helped so many people. If anyone has a place in heaven it is you. I can never thank you enough for all you did for me. It is only possible for me to write this today because you saved my life.
I want to say a big thank you to all those friends who most generously helped financially by sending money to keep me going, and also letters and photos. Without your help life would have been unbearable and I would probably have perished.
