Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had given birth to my son on Septmeber 6,2001. Being that he was sick and wasnst breathing well he had to stay in the hospital. As the days passed he was moved to a room where we could be together. On the morning of September 11, 2001 i awoke to my son by myside; and every television channel showing the tragedy that unfolded. I couldnt believe what had just happened. Only five days old I worried for my son; a child so innocent and pure had just experienced a horrible tragedy. A tragedy that he could not even understand. I thought to myself what kind of world did i bring my son into. In December of 2001 my husband a Marine left to serve in Operation Enduring Freedom. I worried at times, but knew that the good Lord was watching over him for me which he always does. We would exchange brief emails letting me know that he was alright. Every time i seen the news talk about some kind of operation i thought about my husband. I worried if he was alright, i worried what i would do if he wasnt. I worried about what i would tell our son if his daddy didnt return home. Many of times i wanted to cry, but i had to be strong for my son. I thank God for my son; for he kept me strong when times got tough. My husband returned home on July 22nd of 2002. Although my husband cant tell me of anything that happened he asked me if what he did was right. I respond by telling him if in your heart you feel what you did was the right thing to do; I trust your oponion on whatever you did. My son just made one, my husband is home and together we will stand strong and fight terroisim. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
