The picture of her covered in dust was taken by photographer Stan Honda of Agence France Presse and published in newspapers around the world and before her identity was revealed she became known simply as “dust lady”. Until her death she always questioned whether her illness was related to what she endured.
“I didn’t do a day’s work in nearly 10 years,” she said. “By 2011 I was a complete mess. Every time I saw an aircraft, I panicked. If I saw a man on a building, I was convinced he was going to shoot me”, she added.
