Hi to all: I am fine in Long Island. I have been doing a great deal of intervention and debriefing for my fellow neighbors. In Manhasset where I live there are many people who work in the financial district. We lost 33 lives in our town. In a neighborhing town of Garden City, they lost 100 people and in Rockville Centre which is next to Garden City another 50 people are dead. The loss here is overwhelming . People walk around in a daze.

People seem gentler at the moment. I spoke to a congregation of 400 people in church on Wednesday eve. and it was the first time that a psychologist was invited to the altar to address the congregation. It was a moving experience. All who are living and with their families intact have so much to be greatful for. Good night for now.


Regards, Pat Pitta
