Dunblane massacre survivor who was shot twice and forced to hide in a cupboard reveals effects of the atrocity which has left her with a child's right foot, needing regular operations and in fear of balloons bursting


Aimie Adam (top right), 25, from Aberdeen, was just five years old when Thomas Hamilton went on a shooting rampage at Dunblane Primary School - killing 16 pupils and one teacher. 

The mental health nursing student at Robert Gordon University was one of only 12 survivors, but was one of the most seriously injured. She was shot twice - in the right buttock and right thigh - before her PE teacher Eileen Harrild told her to crawl into a gym cupboard.

It was there the schoolgirl (circled in main image) blacked out. As the 20-year anniversary of Britain's worst gun attack looms, Ms Adam revealed the effect it still has on her everyday life.
