It has been 27 years since the worst air disaster in the history of South African aviation, and it's been 27 years since Dominique Luck lost her mother and baby sister, Samantha, who were passengers on the aircraft. Flight SA 295 plunged into the Indian Ocean off Mauritius at midnight on 28 November 1987; there were no survivors. It was an event that shocked the nation, and the world, and for eight-year-old Dominique Luck (née Ackermann), it was the defining moment of her young life. Speculation immediately spread about the cause of the fire that led to the crash and possible political motivations, but despite renewed investigation over the years, including during the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the answers have never been forthcoming. For nearly 30 years Dominique and other family members of the ill-fated passengers have been struggling to rebuild shattered lives and find personal closure. Left to her own devices as she grew up, and without being guided toward proper grieving, Dominique alternately tried to escape and numb her pain. She dissociated with the story of the Helderberg, avoiding the news for the greater part of her life. Her greatest crisis came when her own children were born: the trauma of losing her mother was brought to the fore and forced her to face up to the issues she had suppressed her whole life. Could she rise to be the parent she had never had? In reaching out, at last, she began a painful process of recovery.
