God Bless America....


I will never forget that day....Sept. 11th...It changed America and our security for ever...What were you doing when you heard the news?



Let me tell you a little bit about me...many you know me as Antiquebasketlady....a designer of handbags...but my first love is my day job.  I am an RN/Lactation consultant in an OB unit for the past 38 years...helping new babies come in to the world and help new moms master the art of breastfeeding.

We were getting ready to take a mom into surgery for a repeat surgery...imagine your birth date 9/11...when the report came over the TV that the Twin Towers had been hit!  My heart sank and our world would change...the joy of .that innocent  baby's birth   would be over shadowed by the horrific news....

My heart goes out to all those innocent people who lost their lives and those courageous firefighters in not only New York but Washington DC and Pennsylvania.



God Bless America! Land that I love.....
