my accounts of september 11th

" Stuck In Traffic" Worse than normal traffic for a Tuesday morning rush hour in Washington D.C. We were getting nowhere fast. It was hard to fathom the events we heard unfolding on the radio. The events we were hearing on the radio were about what was happening on September 11, 2001. It started out as an exciting day for my wife Cheryl and I. It was the day we were going to have an amniocentesis done …

…We now feel that our lives could be taken away from us at any moment. In the days after the attack we learned that two of my wife's business colleagues were passengers on the airplane that struck the Pentagon. In our life we have found true the saying "there is only 7 degrees between us and other people of the world." We have many friends and business acquaintances that lost some one on that dreadful day.
