Good point

...blatantly told her she wasn't a victim of 9-11.

But I'd have to say that, in some way, she is a "victim" of 9-11. How they determined that she was "blatantly" told she was not is, however, an unkown to me.

I live in NYC and know people (including my secretary) who were traumatized, with obviosu effects lasting several months, by just knowing the towers fell and having to spend the night at a friend's house due to transportation problems getting home. I can definitely see how the people in charge of these 9-11 relief funds and organizations have to draw the line.

Loss is Loss and Pain is Pain....He never would have been over there if not for 9-11...and it hurts the same as it hurts people that were actually 9-11 victoms or their idea of 9-11 victoms...it was just a different date...thats all.
