I WAS TO BE ON A PLANE THAT MORNING............MY MOTHER WAS IN MINNESOTA IN THE HOSPITAL AND I NEEDED TO GET THERE QUICK. I WOKE THAT MORNING AND TURNED ON THE TV.........AND WHAT I SAW WAS INHUMAN.........I THOUGHT I HAD CAUGHT THE TAIL END OF A NEW MOVIE TRAILER.....BUT MUCH TOO MY HORROR IT WAS REAL. I WENT TO MY SONS SCHOOL IN MY PAJAMAS AS I THOUGHT THE WORLD WAS COMING TO AN END. STILL IN SHOCK I WATCHED IN HORROR. I STILL HAD TO GET TO MY MOTHER, SO I DROVE 2800 MILES BY MYSELF...ALL THE WHILE THINKING ANOTHER SOMETHIN IS GONNA HAPPEN. WELL., I LOST MY MOTHER AS IT TOOK 2 DAYS TO GET THERE, I NEVER GOT TO SAY GOOD BYE..............AS DID SO MANY OTHERS. I DROVE HOME ALONE WITH MY MOTHER, AND ON THE WAY I CRIED. I CRIED FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DIDNT EVEN HAVE A BODY TO MORN OR GIVE CLOSURE TO, I STILL AM SOO SAD FOR THOSE WHO COULDNT AT LEAST DO THAT...........AND WHATS LEFT OF MY HEART GOES OUT TO YOU ALL...I HOPE SOME OF YOU ARE DOING OK

IM HUGGING U NOW
