After awhile our hospital director came by to tell us it was believed that a hijacked plane was aiming for the military base just outside of town. We were told to get ready for mass casualities! Then, while we waited, I had to go back in to do more procedures. We gave patients the option to wait but they'd already gone through a nasty "clean-out" process and didn't want to go reschedule and go through that again. I couldn't blame them but it seemed awful to do something so mundane while the world was falling apart. Of course they were wrong about a plane coming our way...Thank God.Onlythemanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531176840769484642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8059888837313343350.post-55222523369421406252011-09-12T08:47:44.418-07:002011-09-12T08:47:44.418-07:00Ten years ago Eric and I were driving 2 hrs. from ...Ten years ago Eric and I were driving 2 hrs. from Missoula to Great Falls, MT. We planned to spend the day with my Grandma and Step Grandpa. I went into a gas station to pay for gas and overheard people talking. I didn't know what they were saying, but their energy made me turn on the radio as we drove. We listened as the events unfolded. When we finally arrived in Great Falls we spent our visit glued to their TV. Later we went to eat at Applebee's as the president gave his speech. Everyone was sitting at their table in silence, the wait staff stopped where they were and we all just watched. Surreal and heartbreaking!Maria Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582992268736301561noreply@blogger.com
