    She was also working WTC in the 1993 attack?! Dang, she looks so young for that, I’d have never guessed. And what an amazing life and experience, it’s so intense. Appreciate her and others like her sharing their stories. Wishing her blessed on her new beginning once again❤

    Amidst the tragedy and pain, there was this really moving scene. Several days after the attacks; the responders and construction workers who were removing and clearing the rubble; they were doing it with such a regard and consideration for the potential undiscovered victims. Even the people who were operating the big and heavy excavator were using such caution and sensitivity. I got some filmmaking/acting experience and I swear, they deserve a tribute, especially since many of them suffered and died of cancer and other related illnesses.

    It's like DeJa Vu 8yrs apart! I was around both 1993/2001 World Trade Center Bombings! 2/26/93 I was 2yrs old, and 9/11/01 I was 10yrs old in 5th Math Class in elementary school at the time. They're both are tragic events back to back!

      maybe if you used your head instead of blind faith, you would know that the low 70 floors (where she worked during both events) were not affected on 1993 and 2001. Many 9/11 survivors were also 1993 survivors. The only people that died in 1993 were 6 workers and a unborn baby who were all in the basement, which is where the bombing happened. for 2001, very few people died below floor 77, with most of those being Morgan Stanley employees going up to help people and OCS security going up or staying in the lobby.
      9/11 was all about where you worked (1993 and north tower 2001) and where you were (south tower), and she was in a safe place for both places, like most of the 23,000 survivors who worked during both events
