Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The feeling of emptyness and choking as my eyes began to cry. A heart that said this can not be real.Sudden silence filled our normally loud home.Not only had this disaster impacked thousands of people I did not know, it changed the lives of our children forever.Our newest son turned 10 that day and this impact on him will live on year after year.Although we did not lose anyone that we knew there,our boy lost another sence of safety & happyness. During this past year he has been called twin towers and teased by other children.The fact that he is already a child who suffered extreme child abuse prior to coming home to us, now he has new issues.Trauma happens in so many ways.When you are a small innocent young child trying to put bad things behind you,this impact is great and long term.How painful this is for all of you.Our children know what is like to lose parents and loved ones.They feel like they know what it is like to ache from sudden loss.Our feelings of love and support go out to all the unnamed families who lost so much and got the same media attention. One year later we still cry with them and for them.God bless you all and know that we send our tears and love.Please know we will never forget your loss and pain. the D.E.
