Subject: MEMORIES OF 9-11-01

I WAS AT WORK WHEN MY BOSS CALLED ME IN HIS OFFICE TO ASK ME WHERE MY SON WORKED IN THE CITY. I NOW LIVE IN FLORIDA AND HE AND MY OTHER TWO SONS LIVE IN NEW YORK. MY YOUNGEST WORKS IN THE CITY. I WAS SO SCARED WHEN HE TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED THAT I ALMOST FAINTED. I CALLED MY SON AND HE SAID HE WAS ALL RIGHT. BUT I WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT HE SAID TO ME. IT SENT CHILLS UP MY SPINE . HE SAID MOM I HAVE TO GET OUT OF MY OFFICE NOW THEY ARE SENDING US HOME. I HAVE TO MAKE IT BACK TO BROOKLYN SOME HOW. I HEARD THE TRAINS HAVE STOPPED, SOME OF US WILL WALK OVER THE BRIDGE. WE WILL PRAY ALL THE WAY THAT THEY DON'T HIT THE BRIDGE. (AT THE TIME THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A BOMB)I WANT YOU TO KNOW I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH. IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS JUST REMEMBER THAT AND THE PHONE WENT DEAD. I WENT HOME BECAUSE I COULDN'T WORK AND I WATCHED THE NEWS ALL DAY. I WAS MAKING PLANS TO GO OUT THERE. WHEN ABOUT 3:00 PM MY SON CALLED AND SAID HE MADE IT OVER THE QUEENS BRIDGE AND HE IS AT HIS COUSINS HOUSE. I RAN TO CHURCH TO THANK GOD. I WAS ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES TO HAVE MY SON ALIVE.
MY HEART AND PRAYS GO OUT TO ALL THE POPLE WHO LOST A LOVE ONE.I HAVE SAID PRAYS FOR YOU PEOPLE EVERY DAY. I HAD JUST CAME BACK FROM NEW YORK ON SEPT 10TH. I WAS IN THE WORLD TRADE CENTER TO TAKE THE PATH TRAIN TO MY SONS GIRLFRIENDS HOUSE IN NEW JERSEY IT WAS SO LOVELY AND SO BEAUTIFUL IN THERE. I WAS AMAZED.
NOW WHEN I SEE IT I AM SO SICK. WHY DID THEY DO THIS. SO MANY INOCENT PEOPLE WHO HAD SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR.
I HOPE THEY BUILD IT BACK AND INSTEAD OF FLAGS IN THE BUILDING PUT UP EVERYONES NAME ON THE WALLS. IT WOULD BE GREAT FOR ALL THE FAMILYS TO SEE.
GOD BLESS ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO LOST A LOVE ONE.
