I was helping one of my patient to check out ,when i was told by one of the secretary that a plane had hit the tower of wtc. I stood there in shock & disbelief & was hoping that the informer will start laughing,but it was not meant to be a joke .I went running up to watch the t.v.LOts of people were glued to the t.v.As i watched one tower was on fire& before i could comprehend the situation another plane sruck the other tower & as we watched both towers came tumbling down.It was moment of shock,anger &frustration.I spend rest of the day tending to patients &the details kept coming in.I kept day dreaming & fantacizing that it was not real and/or if any thing could have been done to avert it.Even today i dont have answars,I wonder if good will ever defeat evil. let us keep the hope alive.Although i did not loose any blood realtive in this tragedy ,but after one year i still mourn their death .they were all children of america &we will never forget their ultimate sacrifice. I am a naturalized citizen & very proud of it.
