I was outside cutting grass when the attacks were happening. I came in to check my messages and there on the machine was one from my husband at Kings Bay, GA. He wanted to know what the TV was saying about the terrorist attacks. I thought, "What attacks"? I turned on the television and sat there with my mouth open, tears running down my face and I just prayed. I hurt soooooooooooooooooo badly for the people who died that day and for the loved ones left behind. I sat in front of the TV for days watching whatever I could about it. I didn't want to miss a thing. I didn't lose anyone in the attacks, although it felt like I lost thousands...my husband lost a cousin. He was Donald Green and he was on Flight 93 which was taken over by the passengers. It was a day that I will never forget. I will never forget the awful feeling I had when I turned on that TV. God Bless Us All!!!
