Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On the morning of September 11, 2001, I was at Abilene Regional Hospital having some X-Ray tests done. Because they were doing tests which used radioactivity, the technician would have to come in and tell me to lay in a certain position and then he would go back into a separate room to take the x-rays. After he had gone back and forth a couple of times, he came back in and said that a plane had hit one of the World Tower buildings in New York City. I remember that all of the Dr.s and Nurses were all trying to decided whether it was a mistake, or if it was just an accident, and it really had been hit, and then he went out and came back in to tell me that the second building had been hit. I felt like I was almost in shock-we all were-none of us had ever imagined anything like this could have ever happened. After I left the hospital, I began to discuss what had happened with the woman who had come with me. I remember that we were flipping through all of the radio stations, and all we found was news-nothing but the story was on...As we were driving home, they announced that the Pentagon had also been hit. After that, there was nothing to say. We sat there together, and then we prayed, but it was so far away, and so unattached to our lives that it was tragic, but it didn't really touch our lives. I think that I was not truly affected by it until I learned that a co-worker had someone in the Pentagon.
