Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My husband and I were on holiday in Caleo Salvaki in Crete in Greece. We had just found out that we were expected our first baby in the following April. We had both got colds on about the 5th day of our holiday - we slept in the afternoon and then went into the lobby to go out for some dinner. On getting there, there were a crowd of people around the television - this was about 17:00 their time. We asked what had happened and were told about the WTC and the Pentagon. I just collapsed in my husband's arms thinking about the poor people on the planes. It didn't really hit me about the buildings falling at this stage - I dont think it had happened by then. We just sat there in shock, and then I got pains in my stomach. I went to the toilet to check that all was okay and then my husband took my hands and then talked to my stomach that the baby had to live for the sake of all of us. That however bad things got that it must survive. We went out for evening meal that evening and the place was so calm - people just wandering around dazed and clinging to their families. There was no loud laughing or shouting. We were glued to the televisions for the remainder of our holiday and read every piece of newspaper that we could. We are now the proud parents of a little girl called Kimberley and have since had another girl called Courtney. We shall tell her all about it when she is old enough to understand and will always remember where we were when this awful tradgedy happened. God Bless all those who were lost and also those left behind. You will never be forgotten.
