Posted by: lori haff from columbus, GA. Saturday October 20, 2001 @ 05:34 PDT
my baby was only 3week old so my mom was visting from cali. , my aunt was here also from hawaii. my husban and i were going to mi., for his brothers wedding. we were all going to leave on 9-11. my mom was the first one to fly out. 8:10 was her flight outof atl to san fran. when my husban and i got back to our house to get our luggaue, we turned on the tv and the hell was on every chanel. the ony thing i could think of was,(oh my god, where is my mother) i was screeming and crying. ( this cannot happen to me, please god take care of my mom) i called her boyfriend in cali. he told me that every thing would be ok and for my husban and i not to fly today. but we had to be in mi. befor the 14th. about 15 min later my moms boyfriend called back and was cring so hard he couldnt talk. this man does not cry,he said (i talked to your mom she is in little rock ak. and she is ok. a woman sitting behind her let her use a cell phone to call us.) mom had to stay there for 4 days. my husban and i did go to mi. on the 13th, and things were alot different in the airport. they checked my babys diaper! but i am very glad that this country has come together with one another for support. but will never forget 9-11-01
