911DA Story: Story

I was on my way to work and heard of the first plane going into the first towers on the radio. I got to work within 5mins and my husband was in the office with the television on. I was in a daze. Like I couldn't really absorb what was happening. My mother called me and my sister called me. My mother was terrified and wanted me to go and get my duaghter from school. My sister and I called each other back and forth each time we heard something new had happened. It was just totally unbelievable.

I have had nightmares about being in a house with my children and terrorist coming in and attacking us. In my dreams I was determined to protect my children.

I would love to go and view Ground Zero and get the full effect of the horrable events. God Bless America and to those families (so many) who lost loved ones.
