Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Around 9:25 a.m. on September 11,2001 everything became a blur to me. That is when I hear about the attack on the World Trade Center. The next thing that popped into my head was Jimmy and Chris. Jimmy and Chris are me two older cousins who are like my big brothers. They had both finished their training for the army just the week before. Everyone was talking about how people were being sent to New York and Washington, D.C. to make sure nothing else went wrong. They were both sent to the White House with a bunch of other troops. The day they left was the day I thought I would never see two of the people I love in my life again, because everyone said that the terrorists were trying to find a way to attack the White House and that?s where they were going to be for the next several months helping out. For those months Chris and Jimmy were going between New York and D.C. helping out wherever they were needed. Once my two cousins were sent to help out my cousin Ashley and I decided that we needed to do something to help out. We collected money from numerous people around our neighborhoods and got donations from area stores to make care packages. We sent the care packages to New York fire departments with our neighbor that was going to help clean up debris from the fallen towers. At that time we felt that if wasn?t much but we were two teenagers, what more could we do? When my neighbor returned home he brought back Polaroid pictures of the firemen with their care packages we made. Seeing the small smiles on all of their tear soaked faces we knew we had made a small difference. **To the loved ones of all the victims of 9-11-01; My heart goes out to you! To all of the Firefighters, police officers, rescue workers and passengers of the planes that crashed in New York, Pennsylvania, D. C. you are the true heroes of September 11th. You gave up your lives to save the lives of others. 9-11-01 will ALWAYS remain in hearts.
