911DA Story: Story
My son and myself were in our family room watching Fox News
when the program was interuppted by the sight of Tower 1 in flames, we were immediatly at full attention praying that by the grace of God there were no deaths, then in horror we
found ourselves in unison yelling at the people on TV to run
and get out. It doesn't sound right but it was as though if we screamed loud enough the people would hear us. My son is only 26 yrs. old, myself I had witnessed President Kennedy's
asassination,Dr. Kings, and Bobby Kennedy and yes Oswald's
killing. I always thought those were the worst other than of course our boys in "Nam" that had to be left behind. I am
not sure if I will ever forget the horror of 9-11-01 nothing I have witnessed had prepared me for that hour,day,endless sorrow that will always remain. I did discover later in the day that my husbands cousin was in Tower 2 and had left "2" as soon as "1" was hit so our family was blessed with his life. So murderous are these groups let us never forget that they will be back, I pray our government is ever deligent and on alert as these people will try,try again.
God Bless all who survived and to the families who lost loved ones.
