Tirhu Khorozyan, a 96 year old women, is one of the few living people that was actually part of the genocide. She was 6 when it happened, and didn't really know what was going on at the time and why it was so important. A few days after the Turks started taking Armenians away and mass killing them. Tirhu and her family left, they were on the run and they were thirsty and hungry and didn't have anything. "My mother went downhill to fetch some water from the gorge and came back terrified. The river had become red of the dead bodies thrown into it." (Genocide Museum, eh it was our life.) Tirhu's father helped people escape from the war, he would help them when they were on the run. One day Tirhu was with her father when he was helping people. Soldiers caught him and was taken away. The soldiers brought her to a group home where soon her mom found her and took her away from it. A year later her father found them because he had escaped. They ran away to Greece and lived there for a long time working at an tobacco plant. Tirhu says that she will never forgive the Turks, she saw way too much to forgive them.
