I was less than 10 minutes from being on it when it went down. I'm still here by the grace of god.

Wow! Thank God, you weren't on the bridge. I'm so glad you are safe.

I have two other friends that live there as well that I haven't been in contact with for awhile. I hope they are okay.

I can't even imagine how you are feeling, being so close to something like that...

Take care!

And my heart goes out to all of those involved or affected by this tragedy...
