19 Years Later: Missing Child Haley Zega Tells Her Story

At age 6 on April 29, 2001, I went missing for over two days in the Ozark National Forest in Northwest Arkansas. I was rescued on May 1st, 2001 by two men on Mules named William Jeff Villines and Lytle James. This is my story.
UPDATE: Here is the link to the Live Q&A I did on 1/10/21: • My Story of Wilderness...
I do read the comments even if I don't respond to all of them and I really appreciate the lovely things people have to say, so thank you! That being said, this is a very personal story that changed the course of my life, and no one but me gets to dictate how I tell it or which details I choose to make public. When this video was published, I had no reason to expect it would get as many views as it has. Please keep your comments respectful, essentially: be kind or leave. In the future I will be deleting rude comments. Go somewhere else if you want to be needlessly cruel to strangers on the internet :)
EDIT 9/19/21: I turned off the comments on this video because some of y’all really don’t know how to behave. I may turn them back on in the future, but no promises. If you want to reach out to me with something KIND, my Instagram DMs are open (I don’t really check Facebook DMs very often, sorry).
Several people have requested subtitles in Arabic, so I've added them, but I don't actually speak Arabic in any significant way so the subtitles are auto-generated by youtube and could be wildly off for all I know. I hope they help!
Thank you so much for watching, I'm so grateful to you all!
