Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I am a school nurse in a High School in Brooklyn. At 8:30 Am a girl came to my office for a copy of her immunizatons. She had dropped out of school the year before and was going to start an Equivalency Diploma program the following night. She apologized for coming at the last minute. She had meant to take a day off from work some time over the summer but never got around to it. The radio was on and we all heard the events being reported as they were occurring. The girl started to quietly cry. I asked her if she know someone who worked there. She said that SHE worked there; she took TODAY off to come here to get her papers together for the GED program. She tried to call her boss, but of course, she couldn't get through. When the towers came down she was crying hysterically. I told her there was a reason that she was here and not there. There was a reason why she came today and not any of the other 60 days of the summer. She was destined to do something wonderful with her life, beginning with her getting a High School diploma. I don't know who she is or what she is doing but I am confident she will make a difference in the world someday.
