RE: THE END OF THE WORLD (9/11 SURVIVOR) - Brief excerpts from my Ground Zero journal
Mother's cousin was NYPD on that day. It's terrifying. I remember how SNL that week was the largest gathering since the attack. We simply didn't know if there would be more. Glad you made it out ok!
I would have stayed longer if FEMA didn't throw everybody out. I lasted about 4 weeks in there but stayed a bit longer to help right outside the perimeter anyway. All my best to your Mom's cousin. NYPD has lost more people to 9/11-related illnesses than they did on that fateful day. (I volunteer as an advocate to spread awareness).
As much as I detest Anthony Weiner. I remember his very passionate defense for insurance for 9/11 responders.
But she's in Florida now so hopefully she'll stay healthy.
I remember his speech. Powerful!
