Amber Escudero-Kontostathis sits down to talk for the first time about being the sole survivor of a lightning strike near the White House earlier this month, on her 28th birthday, and her road to recovery.
"I don't remember much of that day at all," Escudero-Kontostathis told "GMA" in her first interview since the incident.
The interview with Escudero-Kontostathis will air Tuesday on "Good Morning America" and across ABC News. "GMA" airs at 7 a.m. ET on ABC. She doesn't recall much of her stay at the hospital, where she was placed in the Intensive Care Unit, but does remember the nurses trying to keep her calm and telling her things would be OK.
She said her path to recovery has been frustrating both physically and mentally. "I forget that I can't just get up and do stuff. I have to use a walker, for example," she said.
