911DA Story: Story

I had carpal tunnel surgery on Sept 10th late afternoon and was in bed until my hospital called me to follow-up on the outpatient surgery. I will never forget, after she had found out things were as good as they should be she said "have you watched T.V. or talked to anyone today?" My reply "no why?" Our Country has been under terristic attacks since early this morning and thousands of people have been killed! I instantly burst into tears and almost felt like I was dreaming until I got up and turned on the T.V., distruction everywhere, Oh my dear Lord how could ANYONE do this terrible, maliciuos act against the United States. HOW COULD ANYONE BE SO INHUMAINE to kill all those precious innocent people? Will this happen again? Who Did this to all of the American people? I instantly started praying for everyone in the world and for God to especially be with all of the direct victims of these terrist attacks, help us find the people and heal and care for them dear lord. I wanted to go to school and get my precious SON to hold and love! I continually pray for our government, armed forces, fireman, policeman, medical personel ect for all guidance and safety, and strength to get through this terrible 9-11 liftime chapter for all in our country.
