Hard to believe it is 12 years....still clearly recall watching it all unfold on TV at work with all the staff in disbelief.....
A lot of people lost a lot that day and I thought I would recount one incident that happened....
A very close friend of my mother's & our family who lived & worked in Boston decided to fly to LA with her young daughter (my mother's godchild) & best friend for some R & R. Her best friend was unable to get on the same flight so took the next flight.
It turned out that both planes that they boarded were the planes that flew into both towers....as my mother's friend's plane hit one of the towers her brother who lives in NJ happened to be standing in the lobby of that tower & oblivious to the fact that his sister & niece were in that plane.....
We remember them as if it were yesterday and still expect to see them every year......
It is important that 9/11 is not forgotten & that those who lost loved ones still get the support they need.....
