We remember the silence with no planes in the sky since we live in a flight path for the Binghamton, NY airport. I also remember that everyone flew an American flag for months.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179027379034179865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-58911650962812772402011-09-14T20:47:56.839-04:002011-09-14T20:47:56.839-04:00I was at work and we just couldn't get a grip ...I was at work and we just couldn't get a grip on what was happening.

We were told we still had to go to class but we were all numb all day. It was unbelievable.

As I went from room to room in between patients, the news from our small television just got worse and worse. I had a full load of patients so it was a very difficult day... but nowhere near what everyone else involved suffered.BookQuoterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033467542826463255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-51466576234324326482011-09-11T14:04:58.132-04:002011-09-11T14:04:58.132-04:00We must never forget that fate filled day!

My family, too. I was at home in Brooklyn that morning watching the Today Show. My husband and is brother where in the city at work, but not near the WTC; I have several cousins who worked in the WTC area then but, as with many people that morning, they were running late or where elsewhere. My heart goes out to all of the families who lost loved ones, particularly the children growing up without a dad or mom.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-36990087002365000242011-09-11T11:44:51.691-04:002011-09-11T11:44:51.691-04:00Beautiful post Diane!Beautiful post Diane!DCMetroreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02229456529059098518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-706222684092868832011-09-11T11:36:26.815-04:002011-09-11T11:36:26.815-04:00My son was visiting from Europe...we'd had a n...My son was visiting from Europe...we'd had a nice relaxing morning.
