Thank you very much for posting this! I watched the trailer on the ABC website and I'm pretty sure I caught a glimpse of my cousin's daughter, who lost her husband that day. Their only child was born seven days later.

I'll be tuning in, thanks again!

I lost track of them. I hadn't seen him in 25 or more years when it happened. I heard of his death from my older brother, months after 9/11. I never even knew his wife. I just hate to think of that goofy kid ending up with an airplane in his lap -- and of the grief of his wife and the deprivation of his child. Can't really help them personally, so I"m trying to help "generically".

An old preacher we had used to say "the question isn't so much 'Why me?' as it is 'why not me?"

Mary Danahy's first husband, Patrick, worked on the 90th floor of the World Trade Center and died in the attacks. For all these years, she prayed to him for guidance about her life, she said. Now her new husband, Andy, says he prays to Patrick, too.

Okay, this doesn't make spiritual sense. She's been praying to her dead husband for guidance for years, and now her new husband is praying to him, too?

Pray tell, first of all how is this different from a seance conjuring up spirits for "guidance" reasons?

And secondly, who added this 9/11 victim to the pantheon of gods claimed by folks out there? Doesn't that bother anybody else? Or are we so sympathetic to these families' plight that our feelings overwhelm our spiritual common sense?

oh God, please don't make me put up with another category of Americans that the media continues to talk about incessantly...."generation Xers are for social security reform, but what about the 9/11 babies?"

Remembering the babies is good for America.

Do you have people pray for you here on earth? If so, then why not in Heaven?

Child are a gift from God.

Even if we are no longer here, part of us lives on.

Lord, bless these little ones, and watch over them in the future.

For such is the Kingdom of Heaven, as Jesus said.

Excuse me...I can't see the screen so well anymore.
