my husband and i were at the doctors office when the first plane strucj at the world trade center and were in shock and cried and especially the second one. it was horrible and people in some buildings where we were had friends there and were crying and some even drove there. then i am usually on call at my job to run the switchboard because there was no relief and the others were tired from all the calls coming in because we had also set up a blood bank there at childrens specialized hospital in mountainside new jersey and the calls were coming in like crazy and we did get some people in for trauma. that day was also something different because the people and some friends of mine were at the port in elizabeth new jersey could see the towers coming down and it was dramatic. there will always be a scar of what happened and at times i still cry because it was so heartbreaking and should of never happened. this is really a day to remember. never forget our fallen angels
