Breaks my heart to hear him say he doesn’t feel like he made any difference on 9/11….he started the day giving blood, which itself is a great act. He could have saved someone that day bc of just doing that. He also was there to support the other firefighters, didnt stay home and say he was brand new and too afraid to go.
Rob your story is moving and needs to be heard. All the sick firemen and people. Every American needs to push for you guys to get the care you need. Thank you for your service.
The compensation fund is good for anyone who lived or worked near ground zero. It's good for 99 years and anyone who has symptoms can apply and be covered for life. The right thing was done for them, but it's devastating they had to fight so hard for it!
Rob, you ABSOLUTELY made a difference. And you continue to every day! Sharing your story alone has an amazing ripple effect all over the world. What a touching contribution. Thank you for your bravery, not just ON 9/11 but every day since. much love from Arizona.
The most infuriating fact is state and federal elected officials maintain their top-drawer health insurance for the rest of their lives... even if they only serve for one term. First responders, the construction crews and all the residents and businesses who were told they could return to their lives as the air quality was cleared. And have to beg, threaten, plead for assistance. Disgraceful!
Hi Rob , I’m watching and listening to your story from Dublin Ireland . I watched the second attack happen live on tv in sept ‘01 and suffer ptsd from just that … I was 8 months pregnant and I thought the world was coming to an end! You were there!!! Your first day on the job was horrendous and your bravery is remarkable at 21 yrs of age. You shouldn’t have been there, you were let down from day one by the job you loved. Politics.! Well done to you now for fighting for health care for yourself and your colleagues. Your contribution again is remarkable and yes it should all have been taken care of then and there in 2001 and subsequently and it’s dirty politics , but the buildings were rebuilt in double quick time , again dirty politics... Take care and stay safe , ☘️🌹❤️
you said your story is pretty un remarkable, but i listened for the whole 43 mins, and was touched, i dont know ptsd but i can see it affecting you maybe worse than the health issues. but i feel for you and that alone is part of the whole story of 9/11, thank you so much for sharing!
My heart breaks for this man and all the other first responders and victims of 9/11. Every oral history collected from everyone who survived the attack and those families left to carry on are of the uttmost importance to history so future generations don't forget the pain and sacrifice and survival of that day. I know he can't see that right now. But I pray he can some day and that every story of this day is very important.
You started the day giving blood....THAT ALONE will have saved someone's life.... never underestimate "how small" you may think that is.... Everyone has a 1st day on the job... what an horrendous start to your profession.... The fact is, even being there was comfort to someone...! YOU ARE VALUABLE.... Thank you for doing what you could... watching from NZ, and even those of us on the other side of the world NEVER FORGET....be well....
This man needs to see that he did make a difference down there. Just being there and willing is exactly what we needed. Being new he wouldn't have been pushed to do a lot especially in thos circumstances. We don't need all these dramatic hero stories. True accounts of the affects on people from this tragedy is important for us to remember and teach our children.
Rob Serra thanks for telling your story. You were real and raw and didn’t sugar coat the eff out of how much the US healthcare (among other departments) has ripped off their first responders and those who were there. Thanks for reliving your hell. ❤️
His message was very powerful and it’s a shame that these heroes have to go and beg for what should have been given to them automatically. There’s enough money to waste in helping strange countries around the world but not enough money for the people who sacrificed their lives to help others? Hope his health issues will stay manageable.
And somehow both sets of people are still suffering is due to the US government. They could have stopped the attacks. They could have not fought the unnecessary Iraq war and war in Afghanistan. Afgans are suffering at the sams time as 9 11 victims

My son was 9 and he hates talking about it. Just started teaching my 7 year old grandson about it and after the 1st go around he said "no more Nana" when they don't want to talk about it, don't force them 🙏🏿
Thank you for sharing your story, Rob. You're a humble hero. As a non-American, I'm stunned at the lack of support you've all been given. You all deserve so much more.
Selfless heroes who need to stand for them getting all the care they need. Thank you for this series of incredible testimonies. We should never forget the victims of this terrible attack and all the firefighters, policemen and women and others who were ready to put their lives at great risk for total strangers.
The man who had the poster but didn't want to listen makes me so mad. No wonder this man has so many issues. He was 21, just a boy, just a boy! Then we went to war as if that money couldn't be used to help the victims and the people who are still suffering because of that day and went to help clean up. Lord help us get our priorities straight.
Hi Rob, I think it's unforgiveable the way men like you have been treated by the government. You are a brave man and you most certainly made a difference. Don't be so hard on yourself. I, for one, am proud of you. God Bless you.
Rob, I listened to everything that you said, and I just want to say that I'm sorry for everything that you went through and everything that you are currently going through. I have been to New York City many many times, watched the rebirth of the World Trade Center grounds and listened to the stories, but your story is one that needs to be remembered just as much if not more.
So sad. He’s right. The government should have raced in to help them and take care of them. Same with all veterans from armed forces. They do the right thing, fight for our country, risk their lives. To have the government turn their back on them is a crime.
The people who made a difference seldom took any credit for it. You never know the ripple effect you have on others. Rob, you made a difference. Thank you for sharing your incredible story. It has touched me profoundly.
Thank you for telling your story! As a teacher of sixth graders, I will pass this on. I believe with many it will live on. Truly, bless you and your loved ones,
This is so impactful!! Thank you so much for your sacrifice! I’m a New Yorker but western New York. I, much like everyone else (that was old enough) will never forget the day. Never forget where I was, the shock, the tears, etc. your story is so important because I don’t think most of the population realize what has gone on with you guys ever since. It is completely disgusting the way you guys have been treated. I am so sorry for that. The American citizens are grateful for you!!!!!!!! Our government, well they are as corrupt as can be anyway. They will be held accountable if not in this life, then the next.
You may not feel you helped much on 9/11 but your story really touched me. What you have had to endure healthwise at such a young age is heartbreaking. You are doing God's work helping all the people who do not have the strength or courage. God Bless you and your family and all who have suffered do much. 🙏
Rob, thank you, thank you, thank you! For pushing to get the 70 year plan a done deal when it would have felt better during that 6 years to roll over and go back to sleep. For reliving it every time you tell your story. For your compassion for all of the people affected. For thinking of the 4 year olds. For the guys who told their story to jackass politicians who didn’t want to listen and 24 year old interns that were too self centered to both to listen. Thank you for your perseverance and your part on 9/11 and afterwards. Everybody who helped that day is a piece of the whole that got things done. Your story matters and your service that day matters. So thank you!
Listening to your experience provides hope and support for so many people you will never know. Your journey has been more than any person should have to endure.
Rob, your sacrifice was important, your story is important, and your service appreciated. Hopefully, our country has learned to appreciate our first responders from this!
The least these first responders should get is free healthcare for them and their families! They risked their lives, physical health and mental health! They did a job that no human should ever have to do, and they did it willingly. Even those who weren’t even clocked in to work that day. They came in on their days off. Shame they have to fight additional battles just to survive, all while sacrificing everything.
Your one remarkable man along with all the services and volunteers on that horrific day.I’m truly repulsed by the actions taken by different governments,I very much doubt they would have even volunteered one that day and they have the unmitigated gall to say they serve the people yet THEY CALL THEMSELVES AMERICANS.
I don't know how Mr Serra managed to maintain his composure while describing all of this. You can't justify any of this, it's so incredibly unfair. It's hard to hear his story and so many others'. Making him re-live it over and over as though the burden of proof is on him. So disgusting, OMG the circles, the picture of ground zero, disgraceful and it's all real. One of the few things as bad or worse that the actual trauma is to ignore and suppress it. When you shut down a victim or diminish their trauma, you lose a piece of your soul. Money and Ego always seem to take priority far above everything else.
It sucks change doesn't ever happen easily. U.S needs healthcare like we have in Canada. Victims should never hqv had to fight for all this post9/11. I get cancer and I'm covered, need surgery from an accident, covered etc etc...just because of where I live, without any arguing about who or why my illness occured. It needs to change in the U.S. I know the population is greater but the system isn't working for people. I totally get his anger. That part is not PTSD. That part of him is human natures reaction to failure of the system
Your story is remarkable and you made a difference. Never feel like you didn't. Plus, you're out here talking about the fight that's ongoing for you and all the workers involved who survived the initial catastrophe, and it's so important what you're saying, about getting no help from a government that expected you to run in and risk your lives in a toxic location. You're absolutely right that so many people in the government don't care, because a lot of them didn't have to sacrifice anything, a lot of them didn't lose loved ones, they themselves are not dealing with these pulmonary and respiratory and cancer issues. All the people up top cared about was spending money on wars and weapons and killing people overseas, and not saving any money aside for trying to take care of genuinely heroic people like yourself and all the responders who are now going through all of these health issues. (And that's obscene for whoever was trying to tell you "it's New York's problem." It's absolutely not! The whole thing goes back decades and decades, with international issues between the US and the Middle East that nobody on the scene at Ground Zero had control over. I don't know the exact timeline, but a lot of the people who died on 9/11 probably weren't even born yet when those tensions started. It's the US government's responsibility at the end of the day, and part of that responsibility includes taking care of the health of all their citizens and rescue workers who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.) I truly hope things get better for you, because you deserve better, and your family and friends deserve better. Thanks for the insightful interview and telling your story.
Can't believe, especially after all the disbursements from coronavirus emergency funds, that we are still hearing about unaddressed needs for 9/11 victims in 2021. That was a mess like no other, and such careful and heart wrenching work had to be done to recover those poor people for their families.
Thank you for telling us your 'unremarkable' story. Thank you Q1043 for sponsoring this series. I am so appreciative to learn more about 9/11but more importantly, because of people like you, you are telling the people of the United States how our government is treating the people. The fact that those senators were so blasé and rude.... ugh makes my blood boil! I am sorry this is how our country treats you and all the other people affected by the repercussions of 9/11.
They should take away the big salaries and reducing the pensions of those senators.....and give that money to the survivors like this young man and others who actually put their lives at risk for others and for their country (more than those selfish senators do)!
Some of it sounds like Lyme…the neuropathy, fibromyalgia, GERD, headaches…. Thanks for your story. Good for you. Thanks for all you had to go through to get help for 9/11 responders. Sorry it took so long and that you had to go through all of that. You shouldn’t have had to, that’s horrible. Hang in there. Make sure and see “Come From Away” this week. When I think there’s no decent person in the world, it helps.
I’m sorry Rob, you shouldn’t have had to fight so hard. Thank you for your service. There really are great people like you out there who care so much about doing the right thing.
We, as a country, should be ashamed of ourselves. Those in charge KNEW about the air quality and lied. They knew these brave heroes would clean up hell looking for family and friends. They were used to clean up NY. Get NY and the country back on its footing. Then, totally ignored these folks, and survivors, when health issues started (which they knew was coming). Made these folks beg for aid. SHAMEFUL AND DISGUSTING. May each find peace in their lives and hearts. May GOD bless.
As a citizen of the US that donated to the 911 fund this makes me angry. Where did the money go? Why are we spending our tax money and bringing in illegal immigrants spending more on them than our first responders. The 911 healthcare fund provides very little- almost nothing for meaningful mental health care. Our elected officials no longer have our interests and values front of mind. Thank you for sharing and thank you for the time and effort you put forth to make a difference. You are and I am so sorry to hear you have so many health issues at such a young age. Many prayers of healing.
Rob, getting in your car and going there and trying, *was* remarkable that day and still is to *this* day, not least because you were a first-day 'Probie' if I heard you right? Damn it's 20 years later and you are still questioning out loud how useful you were? You may not have known 'what to do' but you were asking people who were more experienced what you could do to help, and they were assigning tasks to you. If *those* people had not been in a state of total shock too, they would have sent you back to the Firehouse, but they *were* in varied states of shock, so I assign no blame to them, or you, for the illnesses you have suffered since, only whichever politicians delayed you and your fellow first responders from getting the check-ups and treatment you have needed from day one.
My heart goes out to these hero’s. I hope a lot of people listen to these interviews and never forget what happened, but I’m seeing that our own government is forgetting. I wish they would wake up and do the right thing. Why not take amazing care of the hero’s that sacrificed their lives and health for our country instead of sending billions to other countries. Things have to change. Rob is a courageous American hero. I wish the best of everything to him and his family. God Bless💙
Thank you Rob, you made a huge difference and your story is of great value. There is something greater than 9/11 greater than ALL the evil in this world, if you let God in HE will give you answers and give you peace. Doug Batchelor has a awesome ministry that answers questions you must have . Questions we ALL have. Just type his name into FB or UTube Our hearts go out to everyone effected emotionally and physically you reminded me how we need to keep you all in our prayers. God bless you all
Just going there that day, the other days, the days of your career, and all the time you gave fighting Congress to get them to do their job authorizing the Bill For all the others should be more than sufficient. Your personal battles because of 9/11 are astounding, scary and sad. There is so much I want to say admiring your efforts through all the physical, emotional and mental problems. Your voice for those who couldn't speak did/does make a difference. It's so apparent hearing your story God had an important reason sending that doctor to save your life as a baby. Resilience, perseverance, love, common sense, intelligence used beyond your own personal benefit and kindness I hear in your story. God hears you and loves you though his path for you has been far different than you could ever imagine.
I was so young when 9/11 happened but I remember that day and I have so much empathy for anyone related to it that was there that had family there that day I feel for them and especially now that they are struggling with these health problems people think I’m crazy I’m always watching and listening to these videos about 9/11 but now I understand so many people just wanna sweep it under the rug but like he said 9/11 wasn’t over on 9/11 it’s still and ongoing thing god bless him and everyone touch by 9/11 and thank you for sharing you story you are heard 🙏
I’m so sorry this happened to you! You truly are a hero for staying there….I’m sorry to say I would have run as far and as fast as I could to escape the nightmare you endured. 💕🙏🏻
Rod .. Thank you for you life you have sacrificed your body and soul I absolutely think you had made a difference in our country and I thank you again for all you had done may God blessed you with love and peace..
I saw recently he went to Washington to testify for increased funding for first responders. I hope his health improves. So odd that he said there was a scheduled terrorism exercise for the next day-maybe that's why some military thought it was a training exercise at first.

It is rough having that much going on in your body at the same time and I can’t tell you how much my heart goes out to you. Please take care of yourself. PS Jesus is real.
This is not only history, it is living history. I can't believe the 20 something year old interns couldn't listen for a few minutes to something that is so devastating to other people. They are jerks for that. Just because it happened a long time ago when they were like 4 years old doesn't mean that it's not important.
May the Lord Jesus Christ be the doctor for all those who feel the heaviness of "hurt feelings from being ignored, and disrespected" by the very government of the United States of America. God bless America, as well. Amen.
My goodness, this should be top news every day, as well as top priority. I knew there were health issues as a direct result to working at Ground Zero, but I had no idea it could impact a single person in so many ways .Rob, you are absolutely a 9/11 hero. You helped the victims and their families in so many ways. Those officials declaring the atmosphere was safe is just WRONG. It is infuriating that there's been such a slow and lax government response to help these people. It's absolutely sickening and ridiculous.
I’ve listened to multiple stories of first responders on the scene, who arrived before any buildings collapsed. They tell stories of coming up on body parts on the streets. Where did these body parts come from? I’m assuming jumpers. But I’m also wondering, if found before any collapse, were some of these body parts from passengers in the planes?
I like you Rob! You are right, "FUCK THEM!" You were a newbie on 9/11, but it sure sounds like you did a lot of good work for you fellow firefighters as well as yourself after the fact when you are required assistance in dealing with your illnesses. You are one standup dude!
My goodness, I had no idea that the US wasn't funding the healthcare of people who were in NY through the period after 9/11. I am very thankful that in my country, England, we still have the last remnants of our free National Health Service. I worry for not just my old age, but for the lives of the generations, but when a major event such as 9/11 happens that's when I'd have thought the government would step in to help its citizens. What are these reports , following 9/11 in which it became known that there was so much toxicity in the air, and that it as known at the time? I haven't heard very much about people suffering , and to this day because of the air in NY following the attack.
The most infuriating part is federal elected officials keep their top-drawer health insurance for the rest of their lives, even if they serve only 1 term, at tax payer expense. And yet first responders, clean up crews, residents, school children small business owners, employees struggling with illness and death have to beg.
Apparently the US govt now also has billions to send to the Ukraine but nothing for the heroic men and women who volunteered to clean up one of the most toxic places on earth. There's so much debate right now about what actually caused the towers to collapse. But the real story is how the US govt used their own best people to clean up afterwards. There needs to be a lot more talk and discussion about helping these heros.
Why couldnt the military step in with helicoptors that could spray chemicals or water to put out the fire from their helicoptor then rescue ppl by throwing fire resistant ropes????

You may not feel you helped much on 9/11 but your story really touched me. What you have had to endure healthwise at such a young age is heartbreaking. You are doing God's work helping all the people who do not have the strength or courage. God Bless you and your family and all who have suffered do much. 🙏
21 years old and being given the last rites as you headed out to the dark unknown of terrorism. Wow… that says it all. God bless you. 🙏
How do people vote these scoundrels into office ! I am with you 100000000 %
Thanks Rob. Your story really touched me man. You are a true hero. Thank You for what you sacrificed brother. Stay strong.
I hope you have good health in your future! & You did make a difference. Thank you for sharing your story!
Rob, thank you, thank you, thank you! For pushing to get the 70 year plan a done deal when it would have felt better during that 6 years to roll over and go back to sleep. For reliving it every time you tell your story. For your compassion for all of the people affected. For thinking of the 4 year olds. For the guys who told their story to jackass politicians who didn’t want to listen and 24 year old interns that were too self centered to both to listen. Thank you for your perseverance and your part on 9/11 and afterwards. Everybody who helped that day is a piece of the whole that got things done. Your story matters and your service that day matters. So thank you!
Hugs to this guy. OMGosh!! I get you and I can’t imagine!! 💔💔💔💔 I hear every word. I will be praying for you.
Thank you Rob.
Listening to your experience provides hope and support for so many people you will never know. Your journey has been more than any person should have to endure.
Honestly, I think it does more good to each of the people there that day. Hearing that others share the same pain as them must help move on
Sorry that this happened to you and your family. You tell something so infuriating so calmly and so well.
Rob, your sacrifice was important, your story is important, and your service appreciated. Hopefully, our country has learned to appreciate our first responders from this!
The least these first responders should get is free healthcare for them and their families! They risked their lives, physical health and mental health! They did a job that no human should ever have to do, and they did it willingly. Even those who weren’t even clocked in to work that day. They came in on their days off. Shame they have to fight additional battles just to survive, all while sacrificing everything.
First day on the job, and made it. God grabbed you and recruited you to be a hero that day! Thank you
His 1st day was the 13th
Your one remarkable man along with all the services and volunteers on that horrific day.I’m truly repulsed by the actions taken by different governments,I very much doubt they would have even volunteered one that day and they have the unmitigated gall to say they serve the people yet THEY CALL THEMSELVES AMERICANS.
You said you didn't help anyone. What matters is that you wanted to help. Thank you for sharing. Reach out to God, He is there for you. God bless
Hope your health gets better. Terrible that you had stress of 911 and so many health problem. God Bless you. 😊❤️
I don't know how Mr Serra managed to maintain his composure while describing all of this. You can't justify any of this, it's so incredibly unfair. It's hard to hear his story and so many others'. Making him re-live it over and over as though the burden of proof is on him. So disgusting, OMG the circles, the picture of ground zero, disgraceful and it's all real. One of the few things as bad or worse that the actual trauma is to ignore and suppress it. When you shut down a victim or diminish their trauma, you lose a piece of your soul. Money and Ego always seem to take priority far above everything else.
Balls of steel
Thanks for sharing your story
It sucks change doesn't ever happen easily. U.S needs healthcare like we have in Canada. Victims should never hqv had to fight for all this post9/11. I get cancer and I'm covered, need surgery from an accident, covered etc etc...just because of where I live, without any arguing about who or why my illness occured. It needs to change in the U.S. I know the population is greater but the system isn't working for people. I totally get his anger. That part is not PTSD. That part of him is human natures reaction to failure of the system
You just made a huge difference
I'm so sorry you, and so many others, have to put up with politicians' bigotry. You are appreciated.
Your story is remarkable and you made a difference. Never feel like you didn't. Plus, you're out here talking about the fight that's ongoing for you and all the workers involved who survived the initial catastrophe, and it's so important what you're saying, about getting no help from a government that expected you to run in and risk your lives in a toxic location.
You're absolutely right that so many people in the government don't care, because a lot of them didn't have to sacrifice anything, a lot of them didn't lose loved ones, they themselves are not dealing with these pulmonary and respiratory and cancer issues. All the people up top cared about was spending money on wars and weapons and killing people overseas, and not saving any money aside for trying to take care of genuinely heroic people like yourself and all the responders who are now going through all of these health issues. (And that's obscene for whoever was trying to tell you "it's New York's problem." It's absolutely not! The whole thing goes back decades and decades, with international issues between the US and the Middle East that nobody on the scene at Ground Zero had control over. I don't know the exact timeline, but a lot of the people who died on 9/11 probably weren't even born yet when those tensions started. It's the US government's responsibility at the end of the day, and part of that responsibility includes taking care of the health of all their citizens and rescue workers who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.)
I truly hope things get better for you, because you deserve better, and your family and friends deserve better. Thanks for the insightful interview and telling your story.
Can't believe, especially after all the disbursements from coronavirus emergency funds, that we are still hearing about unaddressed needs for 9/11 victims in 2021. That was a mess like no other, and such careful and heart wrenching work had to be done to recover those poor people for their families.
Thank you for telling us your 'unremarkable' story. Thank you Q1043 for sponsoring this series. I am so appreciative to learn more about 9/11but more importantly, because of people like you, you are telling the people of the United States how our government is treating the people. The fact that those senators were so blasé and rude.... ugh makes my blood boil! I am sorry this is how our country treats you and all the other people affected by the repercussions of 9/11.
They should take away the big salaries and reducing the pensions of those senators.....and give that money to the survivors like this young man and others who actually put their lives at risk for others and for their country (more than those selfish senators do)!
Thank you Rob ❤️
You were there. You made a difference. Sending love and prayers ❤️🙏
This is just heartbreaking, I didn't know😔💔🇨🇦 How can we expect help to come if we treat heroes this way?
Some of it sounds like Lyme…the neuropathy, fibromyalgia, GERD, headaches….
Thanks for your story. Good for you. Thanks for all you had to go through to get help for 9/11 responders. Sorry it took so long and that you had to go through all of that. You shouldn’t have had to, that’s horrible. Hang in there. Make sure and see “Come From Away” this week. When I think there’s no decent person in the world, it helps.
I’m sorry Rob, you shouldn’t have had to fight so hard. Thank you for your service. There really are great people like you out there who care so much about doing the right thing.
Thank u for sharing
Rob, you did make a difference. Just being at Ground Zero and helping any way you can surely made a difference. I pray your health improves.
Damm USA health care
We, as a country, should be ashamed of ourselves.
Those in charge KNEW about the air quality and lied. They knew these brave heroes would clean up hell looking for family and friends. They were used to clean up NY. Get NY and the country back on its footing.
Then, totally ignored these folks, and survivors, when health issues started (which they knew was coming). Made these folks beg for aid.
SHAMEFUL AND DISGUSTING.
May each find peace in their lives and hearts.
May GOD bless.
As a citizen of the US that donated to the 911 fund this makes me angry. Where did the money go? Why are we spending our tax money and bringing in illegal immigrants spending more on them than our first responders. The 911 healthcare fund provides very little- almost nothing for meaningful mental health care. Our elected officials no longer have our interests and values front of mind.
Thank you for sharing and thank you for the time and effort you put forth to make a difference. You are and I am so sorry to hear you have so many health issues at such a young age. Many prayers of healing.
Your disgustingly ignorant comment about immigrants, aka human beings, was totally unnecessary, grow up already and educate yourself.
Rob, getting in your car and going there and trying, *was* remarkable that day and still is to *this* day, not least because you were a first-day 'Probie' if I heard you right? Damn it's 20 years later and you are still questioning out loud how useful you were? You may not have known 'what to do' but you were asking people who were more experienced what you could do to help, and they were assigning tasks to you. If *those* people had not been in a state of total shock too, they would have sent you back to the Firehouse, but they *were* in varied states of shock, so I assign no blame to them, or you, for the illnesses you have suffered since, only whichever politicians delayed you and your fellow first responders from getting the check-ups and treatment you have needed from day one.
My heart goes out to these hero’s. I hope a lot of people listen to these interviews and never forget what happened, but I’m seeing that our own government is forgetting. I wish they would wake up and do the right thing. Why not take amazing care of the hero’s that sacrificed their lives and health for our country instead of sending billions to other countries. Things have to change. Rob is a courageous American hero. I wish the best of everything to him and his family. God Bless💙
Thank you Rob, you made a huge difference and your story is of great value.
There is something greater than 9/11 greater than ALL the evil in this world, if you let God in HE will give you answers and give you peace. Doug Batchelor has a awesome ministry that answers questions you must have . Questions we ALL have. Just type his name into FB or UTube
Our hearts go out to everyone effected emotionally and physically you reminded me how we need to keep you all in our prayers. God bless you all
Just going there that day, the other days, the days of your career, and all the time you gave fighting Congress to get them to do their job authorizing the Bill For all the others should be more than sufficient. Your personal battles because of 9/11 are astounding, scary and sad. There is so much I want to say admiring your efforts through all the physical, emotional and mental problems. Your voice for those who couldn't speak did/does make a difference. It's so apparent hearing your story God had an important reason sending that doctor to save your life as a baby. Resilience, perseverance, love, common sense, intelligence used beyond your own personal benefit and kindness I hear in your story. God hears you and loves you though his path for you has been far different than you could ever imagine.
The tragedy of 9/11 continues. It is heartbreaking that those affected have been betrayed. This poor young man has suffered too much.
I was so young when 9/11 happened but I remember that day and I have so much empathy for anyone related to it that was there that had family there that day I feel for them and especially now that they are struggling with these health problems people think I’m crazy I’m always watching and listening to these videos about 9/11 but now I understand so many people just wanna sweep it under the rug but like he said 9/11 wasn’t over on 9/11 it’s still and ongoing thing god bless him and everyone touch by 9/11 and thank you for sharing you story you are heard 🙏
I pray for everyone who was affected in September 11, 2001, and all if us🙏
I’m so sorry this happened to you! You truly are a hero for staying there….I’m sorry to say I would have run as far and as fast as I could to escape the nightmare you endured. 💕🙏🏻
Rod .. Thank you for you life you have sacrificed your body and soul I absolutely think you had made a difference in our country and I thank you again for all you had done may God blessed you with love and peace..
That’s so creepy that his class was supposed to be there acting as victims of terrorism on the 12th! That gave me chills!
I'm so sorry...
All the massive building materials that came in on tractor trailers and left in 5 gallon buckets....
I saw recently he went to Washington to testify for increased funding for first responders. I hope his health improves. So odd that he said there was a scheduled terrorism exercise for the next day-maybe that's why some military thought it was a training exercise at first.

Thanks BeachBum. Important list of the usual obstructionists.
It is rough having that much going on in your body at the same time and I can’t tell you how much my heart goes out to you. Please take care of yourself. PS Jesus is real.
This is not only history, it is living history. I can't believe the 20 something year old interns couldn't listen for a few minutes to something that is so devastating to other people. They are jerks for that. Just because it happened a long time ago when they were like 4 years old doesn't mean that it's not important.
May the Lord Jesus Christ be the doctor for all those who feel the heaviness of "hurt feelings from being ignored, and disrespected" by the very government of the United States of America. God bless America, as well. Amen.
💪💙
I am so sorry that politician said its New York's problem. Thats not right.
My goodness, this should be top news every day, as well as top priority. I knew there were health issues as a direct result to working at Ground Zero, but I had no idea it could impact a single person in so many ways .Rob, you are absolutely a 9/11 hero. You helped the victims and their families in so many ways. Those officials declaring the atmosphere was safe is just WRONG. It is infuriating that there's been such a slow and lax government response to help these people. It's absolutely sickening and ridiculous.
I’ve listened to multiple stories of first responders on the scene, who arrived before any buildings collapsed. They tell stories of coming up on body parts on the streets. Where did these body parts come from? I’m assuming jumpers. But I’m also wondering, if found before any collapse, were some of these body parts from passengers in the planes?
Hun I don't think you give yourself enough credit because just being at the site and trying made a huge difference
I like you Rob! You are right, "FUCK THEM!" You were a newbie on 9/11, but it sure sounds like you did a lot of good work for you fellow firefighters as well as yourself after the fact when you are required assistance in dealing with your illnesses. You are one standup dude!
My goodness, I had no idea that the US wasn't funding the healthcare of people who were in NY through the period after 9/11. I am very thankful that in my country, England, we still have the last remnants of our free National Health Service. I worry for not just my old age, but for the lives of the generations, but when a major event such as 9/11 happens that's when I'd have thought the government would step in to help its citizens.
What are these reports , following 9/11 in which it became known that there was so much toxicity in the air, and that it as known at the time? I haven't heard very much about people suffering , and to this day because of the air in NY following the attack.
Who was doodling instead of listening?
Please name people. Everyone should know.
What an ironic beginning...
The most infuriating part is federal elected officials keep their top-drawer health insurance for the rest of their lives, even if they serve only 1 term, at tax payer expense.
And yet first responders, clean up crews, residents, school children small business owners, employees struggling with illness and death have to beg.
America should be ashamed. Not having Healthcare for these people is dispicable.
Nothing about you or your story is unremarkable!
Apparently the US govt now also has billions to send to the Ukraine but nothing for the heroic men and women who volunteered to clean up one of the most toxic places on earth. There's so much debate right now about what actually caused the towers to collapse. But the real story is how the US govt used their own best people to clean up afterwards. There needs to be a lot more talk and discussion about helping these heros.
Stuff the government,, YOU are a HERO for being there,,, you did a great job,,, and you should hold your head high,, God bless you Rob,,,, BE BLESSED
Why couldnt the military step in with helicoptors that could spray chemicals or water to put out the fire from their helicoptor then rescue ppl by throwing fire resistant ropes????
