we conclude this evening with jessica buchanan and her husband erik landemalm. their new book tells the story of her 93 days held captive by somali pirates. >> i think there are different layers emotionally that you experience in telling this story. yes, i mean there is part of it that is very cathartic and very therapeutic but it can be very difficult. every time i tell my part of the story, i maybe remember something different that i hadn't remembered before. it's a good reminder of where i'm at now and how things could have gone. >> i had never faced that kind of evil before, that someone takes what you love the most and not just that, they also try to destroy for anyone that is connected to that person, they try to take whatever they can, monetary. they try to make you feel as bad as possible so that you're willing to go ahead and give them what they want. >> charlie: the challenge of global health and global poverty and what it's like to be held captive by somali pirates and then rescued by navy seal team six. next. captioning sponsored by rose communicatio

buchanan's husband erik landemalm worked tirelessly for his wife's rescue as her health rapidly deteriorated. navy seal team six was ordered to attempt a rescue operation. buchanan rounted their ordeal this past sunday. >> all of a sudden i feel all these hands on me roughly grabbing at me. and i try to protect myself. and i pull the blanket closer on top of me. then i hear my name. but it's not a somali accent. it's an american accent. and i can't compute. like i can't understand that somebody with an american accent knows my name. and they say, jessica, we're with the american military. we're here to take you will home. and you're safe. they pulled the blanket down from my face and all i see is black. black masks. black sky. and all i can say over and over is you're american? you're american? >> charlie: the seals left on other helicopters. she didn't see their faces, didn't hear their names. they appeared and they were gone. the only thing left in the camp were nine dead bandits. >> mr. speaker snot it all ended just hours before the state of the union address as the president walked in h
