I WAS WATCHING THE NEWS BEFORE I HAD TO GO TO WORK. I HONESTLY COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT I SAW ON THE T.V. I YELLED FOR MY SON TO GET UP AND COME LOOK AT THE SCREEN,I WANTED HIM TO TELL ME THAT I WAS HALLUCINATING. HE LET OUT A CRY AND JUST HELD ME AS I STARTED TO CRY. I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW HOW I MADE IT THROUGH THE DAY. SEEING THE FACES OF THE PEOPLE ESCAPING AND THE WORKERS THAT WERE TRYING TO HELP, IS SOMETHING I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO WIPE FROM MY MEMORY.
THAT NIGHT I HAD A HEART ATTACK AND IN THE DAYS THAT FOLLOWED I HAD SEVERAL. I'M NOT SURE HOW I SURVIVED BUT I DID AND I AM SO THANKFUL THAT I'M STILL HERE TO REMEMBER WHAT HAPPEN ON 9/11/2001. I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THE SURVIVORS EVERYDAY THAT I'M ON THIS WONDERFUL EARTH.
