Medical professionals volunteering at the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013 found themselves tending not only to tired runners, but also to victims of the two bombs that exploded that day.

For the first time since that tragic event, those first responders are talking openly about their experiences, the strong bonds that were forged there a decade ago, and the healing that's happened since.

As we remember the Boston Marathon bombings, WBUR reporter Martha Bebinger joins The Common to share stories from inside the medical tent and beyond.
