Reading this article and remembering all the brave men and woman who put there life in danger for the victims of the 9/11 attacks just shows the selfless act they did for their country. I agree with the decision they made as a team because they all agreed to it. If this had been one of my family members I would have wanted to beery there body and given them a proper good bye. This woman was someone’s wife, mother, and grandmother because the article says she was an older woman and had pictures of her grandchildren. I think that the family of this woman was grateful that these men took her out of the mammoth block of concrete and steel so she could be identified instead of being buried underneath all of the gravel when the buildings came down and never known what happen to her.

My mom had a best friend she knew her since they were little they grew up together in Mexico and when my mom moved to the U.S they still kept in touch every year they came to visit us or we would go to Mexico she had a little boy he was 3 years old and we would call her aunt and the little boy would call us cousins we would treated each other as family. One year she came to visit us in Houston and they would come driving from Mexico to Houston and on the way they had an accident they crashed and passed away my mom’s friend and her husband the only one to survive was the little boy. My mom and dad rushed to the hospital to see the little boy. After the burial they sat down with the family to see what was going to happen with the little boy who was going to take care of him. And both sides of the family said that they couldn’t afford to take in a child because in Mexico education is not free so kids work at a young age. My mom and dad decided to adopt him bring him to live with us knowing that they had 5 kids of their own and my dad was unemployed at the time but they made the diction to keep him because they knew that even if my dad was unemployed they could give him a better life in the U.S then his family in Mexico. He is a part of our family and I believe for my mom it’s a way of keeping her friendship alive thought her son.

So in conclusion I believe life throws us difficult situations where we are forced to make dictions that we never thought we would have to face and sacrificed something for someone else. But as the men in 9/11 did I would have done the same thing for that woman just like my mom did for the little boy who is now my little brother.
