\n<\/TABLE>She spent two weeks in New York where she worked with people who were able to escape the towers before they collapsed and with those who lost loved ones in the attacks. <\/p>\n

In recognition of the 10th anniversary of the attacks, Zagurski — a social worker in the UNMC Department of Psychiatry — recalls a story from her experience in New York after Sept. 11. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I was assigned to accompany a family who had lost a loved one during their first visit to Ground Zero. At that time, many people still held out hope that their loved ones may have been alive within the rubble. But when they got to the site, it became absolutely clear that no one could have survived. <\/p>\n

“When the families arrived, construction workers stopped their work, took off their helmets and stood silent to acknowledge the presence of those who had lost loved ones. It was tearful, powerful and incredibly quiet.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
