Referring to his shoes, Corsa wrote “soaked between its fibers, is the blood of 54 innocent human beings. I don't know which were straight, which were gay, which were black, or which were hispanic. What I do know is that they came to us in wave upon wave of suffering, screaming, and death. And somehow, in that chaos, doctors, nurses, technicians, police, paramedics, and others, performed super human feats of compassion and care.”
Corsa went on to say that once the last patient leaves the hospital, he will take them off and keep them in his office.
He wrote, “After the worst of humanity reared its evil head, I saw the best of humanity of come fighting right back. I never want to forget that night.”
