As Marin seeks to find her voice again and continues to gain strength, she plans to join other families of the victims in Uvalde and fight for justice. And when struggles arise, that's when she looks back on letters sent to her from around the country.
"I saw your story," one said,"and knew immediately I needed to reach out."
In October, Marin told her story to ABC News in a report that led to a showering of sympathy that has not stopped. During that interview with ABC News correspondent John Quiñones, Marin's body shook with tremors, a symptom of the emotional distress doctors and therapists blame on the psychological aftermath of the mass shooting. She spoke with a stutter, suffering from anxiety and depression.
DPS spokesman Travis Considine said,"DPS corrected this error in public announcements and testimony and apologizes to the teacher and her family for the additional grief this has caused to an already horrific situation." And he stressed that Marin's name was not publicly released by his agency. MORE: 'I am suffering mentally,' Uvalde educator says after false blame in shooting aftermath: Exclusive
"I want to tell myself I am here. Get out! I am coming back for myself. I want me to get out of there," she yelled, pointing toward the classroom she was in on May 24.
