The only thing good about 9/11 is that there hasn't been another one since. 9/11 happens to fall on the day before my birthday, on 9/12.
On 9/11, 2001, the day before my 40th birthday, I woke up with severe chest pains around 9 AM central time and learned about the attacks when I read Yahoo news. Then I turned on the TV and started watching. At the time, even thought I realized that the country was under attack, I did really care because I though I was going to die. I really wasn't processing what was happening.
The pain got worse and eventually I called a cab to take me to the hospital, where I stayed for the remainder of the day. Apparently I had had a mild heart attack but this was never confirmed. For a while I thought I was going to die and that the whole world was going to go with me. It is a day I would have never forgotten even if there were no terrorist attacks.
Anyone else remember what you were doing on that sad day?
