Social issues were at another alarming effect that the effects of 9/11 had on the U.S.A. The attack was felt globally.

Could our government have masterminded this horrific crime? Actually, I believe they did, I personally believe that the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and the crashing of Flight 93 does not accurately add up to it’s ashes. On September 11, 2001 the media/government reported that terrorists hi-jacked two U.S. commercial airplanes that struck the World Trade Center. Although how could the terrorist successively pass through security and board a plane with weapons, especially after the D.B. Cooper incident?
Remarkably she had made a full recovery. Rayne said to her mom “But mom what happened to Morton’s Keep, and dad how are you alive? “ Rayne parents looked at each other and said “Honey you were in a car crash and in a coma. Everything that has happened in your head was just a big dream” Confused enough she laid back and fell asleep again, later that day she woke up and walked. It was the first time she had walked for over 6 months, she had felt better knowing that all that happened was just a bog nightmare and she was back in the real world, after her recovery was complete Rayne had gone off too university to study medicine.
The 9/11 Commission Report, officially titled “The 9/11 Commission Report: The Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States”, was released in July 2004 (Norton 1). When released, it became a best-seller instantly (Jasper 5). The 9/11 Independent Commission Family Steering Committee (FSC) is nonprofit group made up of the families who lost loved ones on September 11th that was greatly influential in convincing the government to establish the 9/11 Commission (Tremoglie 2). They also came up with a list of specific questions they wanted the Commission to answer. The purpose of the Commission was to deliver an in-depth report on the hijackings and terrorist attack (Scheppler 4).
Nevertheless, he is not as fine as Lyman thought. Even though his brother did his best to help him, Henry could not accept the new awful things he was going trough, therefore he took his own life. Watching someone you love suffering is heart wrenching, especially when nothing can be done to help the situation. Erdrich looks at the trauma of a soldier returning home from war and how their family must cope with his emotional change. The effects of war not only affect the soldier, but also cause an effect on families and loved ones.
The first stage is called denial and isolation; this is when the person or persons are in shock and not able to accept the death as in the case of Sally and the death of her son (Kanel, K., 2007). She does not feel that this is right that her son has passed before her and she cannot believe it has happened. The second stage is anger; at this stage a person is very aware of their feeling about the death and usually has a feeling of rage or intense pain, Sally seems to have the intense pain, but she is not showing any signs of rage at this point. Sally is however showing sign of the third stage and that is bargaining and Mike has even heard trying to make a deal with God to take her and bring her son back. The next stage is usually depression; this is when the person or persons actually experiences the true mourning and grief of the death, they experience sad feelings, feel nonenergetic and are despondent to those around them.
I would feel the sadness of leaving them and probably a bit angry because I am not ready to leave them. I would probably first think about my children. I would wonder where would they live and who would take care of them. I would wonder if the person or people that they end up living with would treat them right or abuse them. I would think about how my death would affect them; would they be able to mourn in their own ways, or would they be forced to grieve briefly and be expected to immediately move on.
The death of a parent could possibly be the most traumatizing event during a child’s life. “The death of a parent is a shattering event for a child….it stuns, shocks, bewilders, overwhelms, and frightens the child” (Parry & Thornwall, 1992, p. 126). It can cause cognitive difficulties, denial, depression, fear that remaining parent may die, feelings of abandonment, guilt, and inability to trust (Becvar). I didn’t express all of these symptoms but a lot of them I have felt at sometime during my life. When my father died I was too young to grasp the concept of death, so it didn’t effect me mentally until I was around ten.
