NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. On September 11th, I like many others was at work. I work at Henry County Medical Center in Paris, TN. I am in outpatient surgery. We had a busy schedule that day. One of my frllow workers came and told me that one of the twin towers were on fire. I truely did not think too much about it. We were busy and had several patients to take care of. Then she said a plane was involved. Every nutse was watching tv and attempting to keep up with the news. I was standing in front of a patients tv when the second plane hit, when the towers each fell and when all of the events unfolded. It was so tramatic, you could not move from the set. Every room had the news on. Surgery was calling and wanting to know the events since they had no tv in OR. It was devasting. I know just watching it was horrible. It totally consumed the day, week, months and the yeats that lay ahead, I will never forget where I was or even what room I was in that tragic day. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. It makes me more aware of my family and the ones I love. I want to hold and trasure them and tell them how much I love them. NMAH Story: Remembered What do you think should be remembered about September 11th? The honor and courage each passenger showed, especially Todd Beamer.Esch of those people gave thier lives for us. The Pittsburg plane saved so many lives. NMAH Story: Flag Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th? Have your feelings about the American flag changed as a result of September 11th? Yes. Yes, it made ne more aware of my freedom and love for the USA. It reminds me of the ones who died trying to talk one last time to their loved ones while trying to save the lives of the unknown passenger sitting next to them or the people in their daily lives unaware of the events that was taking place.
