My older sisiter was on the 33rd floor of the towers and was one of the first to get out.
We watched the TV frozen, numb and praying against all odds. We waited, four hours later he called from a pay phone to let us know he was alive.
The emotions that I felt were severely conflicted, elation, grief, anger, sorrow and a hundred more.
To this day I cannot watch images of that day, I do not need to. They have been etched in my mind for life.
Welcome Home
We tell a soldier or veteran of war welcome home because the battle never leaves us, as we return from conflict everyday of our lives.

Stumbling Vision
Altruism - A race to balance our passions and purpose to effect social change, a calling not of our choosing but a gift from God. When we hear it and obey, we find life begins to unfold as never before.
Altruism is not a word or deed nor the sum thereof; the efficient use of generosity, community and organization with holistic implications and impacts on lives for the better.
Mission: Educate and support returning soldiers, veterans their families on navigating the Combat PTSD Home.
