Distract each other from the nightmare by talking about their favorite 3rd Rock episodes. He thanked me for helping him laugh during the worst weeks of his life. I started crying, it was definitely one of the most unforgettable moments of my life. I never told anyone before."True story: A few weeks after 9/11 I was in a deli downtown. A bunch of dust-covered firemen walked in & one of them came up to me," she tweeted.
Many people like yourselves don't realize what you do for people. To make them laugh even on their worst day is a real gift.Huge lump in my throat right now. Thanks for sharing— SarahCA 💙🌊 In addition to its power grace and sweetness, that would, to me, be a quintessential “New York” story.
