Should I call DS on 9-11?
Permalink  
 

DS was one building away from the WTC when the planes hit, and took all day to get home.

I keep thinking how close, how dangerous it was for him.

 

Every year I have to decide whether to call him (which is a reminder), or just maintain radio silence.

 

What do you think?

Call him, keep it short but just say you want him to know how thankful you are that he is still here and that you love him. He will be thinking about it as well.

Call. It's important to you.

The first anniversary of DH1's death was very hard. I thought my parents would call. They didn't.

Dad later told me that he wanted to call, but Mom told him not to, because...it might remind me.

FFS, you think I'm going to FORGET the day my husband was killed???

 Im sorry.  That is heartbreaking.  I still call my mother on their anniversary and on his bday. She appreciates it. She likes for him to be remembered,  no matter his faults. ..

Call. It's an important day. And he's thinking about it too.

Okay, I spit my coffee out, NJN! HAHAHA

Yes, call, and express your gratitude that his life was spared.

Those of us who lived through 9-11 will never, nor should we, ever forget.

Yes. He was at work and very busy. Good, short conversation.
