and there was very little help for us.

Thankfully, most people will never know that kind of danger or pain or sorrow. But it does make you feel like the world is empty when you realize the way you live is beyond the understanding of most people. On 9/11 I thought, the country is feeling the same way I've felt every day for years.

Strength to you, Tracy. This is a good place to find kindred spirits.
