Glad to see you finally made your way to Wikipedia, I've tidied up a couple of facts just so the language is a little less colloquial ("making her stay a little difficult", etc) - but very much appreciate your work on the article.

I gotta make a polite comment here, that while shahada is indeed a better term for "sacrificed" or "martyred", the documentary does show you saying "jihaded". I'd suggest either removing the quote entirely, or otherwise I have to insist that we not "paraphrase" direct quotes. I sympathise with "Hindsight is 20/20", but I have to treat you like any other person found editing their own article - and that means complaining if you "rewrite history" in any way.
