My grandmother's tale from the war has me stuck on how to frame it as a prompt

Last week, my grandmother shared a story from her youth during the war. It was so vivid and emotional that I immediately wanted to turn it into a writing prompt for our community. But I'm struggling to condense it without losing its essence. Any tips on how to capture such personal histories in a prompt format? I'd love to hear how others handle similar inspirations.

Just focus on the strongest feeling she described.

Was I wrong to ignore the emotion before seeing it frame the story perfectly?
