I Lost My Dad on 9/11My dad died in 9/11. It's been thirteen years and the pain just won't
go away. In fact, now that I have kids of my own, I miss him even
more. They have just opened up the museum to families, so I went
this morning. My plan was to go to work afer, but I was too
overwhelmed by emotion, I just couldnt do it.
What happened to him?
He was a cop. He actually had the day o. But as soon as he heard,
he drove into the city and got there just in time for the second
tower to fall. A witness said that my dad had almost made it out. He
had started to run out of the tower, but turned back because
a trapped woman was calling to him.
What do you remember?
I was in science class. And my teacher told us that there had been
a plane crash. Thats all she said. Then I noticed all these kids
around me getting phone calls and text messages, and theyd runout of class. So I knew something big was happening. We got let out
of school soon afer.
When did you fnd out your dad didn't make it?
Not until later that day. On the ride home, I remember thinking
that he was going to have to work overtime on this and that he
probably wouldn't be around that weekend and what a bummer that
was. Then I pictured him crawling into the rubble, pulling peopleout, giving them CPR, bandaging their wounds and comforting
them. I bet he's saved a bunch of people by now,' I said to the kid
next to me on the bus. 'They're lucky they got him. It's just too bad
that I wont get to see him for a while.
