Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I would first like to extend my deepest sympathy to all the families of the victoms and the survivors of that tragic day. May God bless you through this all, and always. I was sitting on the couch talking to a good friend on the phone, just waiting for my 2 year old to wake up and start the day, when my husband, who works at American Airlines, O'hare called on the other line to tell me a plane just hit one of the World Trade Center towers. I quickly turned the t.v. to CNN and sat there in complete disbelief. I clicked back to my friend and told her. Moments later we both listened to the report that a second plane hit. Then I was scared. I hung up with my friend to call my mom in Florida. She turned on the t.v. and saw the reporting and we just sat there in silence watching. We occasionally would say "unbelievable" or "I can't believe this is happening." I then hung up with her to make and recieve more calls. I still remember watching the 1st tower fall and then the 2nd . I jumped up from the couch and just paced back and forth in total disbelief. You have a panic feeling within you. I was a long way from New York, but it might as well been the other side of my town, I was terrorized, I was scared for mine and my families life. When would it stop? My husband works at a major international airport, would they be next? All those people injured and/ or parishing that morning, those were OUR COUNTRY'S PEOPLE! That is what pulled everyone together, it could of been any one of us. And we were NOT going to let the terrorists who did this win!
