911DA Story: Story

I was on my way to work when I heard the first tower was hit on the radio. I could not believe it! I got into work and I say everyone around out command center, where all the televisions were located. I was training a class and I just remember turning on the television in the training room in enough time to see the second tower fall to the ground. My whole class was in shock. I remember trying to call my best friend that lives in NYC and all the lines were busy.

I went home that night and picked my kids up. We went to Walgreens to get medical supplies and dropped them off at the local radio station to go to anyone in NYC. We went home afterwards and prayed that all would not be lost.
