Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
IN MEMORIAM
The September 11 attacks (often referred to as September 11th or 9/11) were a series of coordinated suicide attacks by al-Qaeda upon the United States on September 11, 2001. On that morning, 19 al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners.[2][3] The hijackers intentionally crashed two of the airliners into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, killing everyone on board and many others working in the buildings. Both buildings collapsed within two hours, destroying nearby buildings and damaging others. The hijackers crashed a third airliner into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C. The fourth plane crashed into a field near Shanksville in rural Pennsylvania after some of its passengers and flight crew attempted to retake control of the plane, which the hijackers had redirected toward Washington, D.C. There were no survivors from any of the flights.
The death toll of the attacks was 2,996, including the 19 hijackers.[1] The overwhelming majority of casualties were civilians, including nationals of over 70 countries.[4] In addition, there was at least one secondary death one person was ruled by a medical examiner to have died from lung disease due to exposure to dust from the World Trade Center's collapse.[5]
May we always remember the lives that were lost that day. The Hero's who will never wear a medal. The strength and resolve of the American People.

In memory of all of the Lost Souls of 9/11...may they all rest in peace. Today and every day I and millions of others honor your lives and continue to send our thoughts and prayers to your families and friends.
I also hope that we honor and send our deepest gratitude to the rescue workers and all others involved that fateful day and every day thereafter. This includes the fire fighters, police, medical personnel, and everyone who risked their lives to help that day. I doubt that we will ever know of all the sacrifices and heroism which took place on that day.
I also ask everyone reading this to remember that those same sacrifices were and are continuing to be made each and every single day in so many ways by the military, past, present & future; all police and firefighters; all rescue workers; and the families of these brave men and women. It is with deep gratitude I say THANK YOU and may you all be richly blessed.
Love, Light and Peace to all.
