Christina Ray Stanton is a Florida native who has lived in New York City for almost 30 years. Christina is a licensed NYC tour guide who has led thousands of people on tours since 1995. In 2017, she founded a nonprofit called Loving All Nations, which helps the world’s poor and vulnerable. Christina has written two books and over twenty articles that have won awards and have been featured on TV channels and in top publications all over the world. She is a sought-after speaker on the subject of 9/11. Website: www.christinaraystanton.com, Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/christinaraystanton My book addresses our experience of living six blocks from the World Trade Center during the September 11, 2001 attacks. We had to evacuate our home after the second plane flew over our heads while we stood on our 24th-floor terrace. When the buildings came down, we were covered with dust and debris and spent hours outrunning smoke that threatened to asphyxiate us in Battery Park. We were carried off the island of Manhattan by boat in the largest boat evacuation in history and were homeless for almost two weeks before we could get back into our apartment. We struggled with PTSD, unemployment, and health issues in the aftermath. My book about Covid-19 is related to 9/11, in the sense that the toxins from the 9/11 dust compromised my health and likely led to a near-fatal case of the virus. I was hospitalized twice and told I had a 50% chance of survival. I’ve been given a gift that no one would want — the chance to speak from inside two of the most shattering events to hit our country in the past century. But both calamities taught me that we have an enormous capacity to speak into each other’s lives, and both large and small acts of kindness can alter someone’s future. I want to inspire others by telling stories that include examples of how we can lift each other up. I also founded a non-profit called Loving All Nations after surviving 9/11, which addresses need after man-made and natural disasters around the world.

Beginning in her teens, Patty battled drastic weight fluctuations of 50 to 75 pounds every two years. Desperate to break the cycle, in her late 30s she started working with a therapist specializing in eating disorders. Her therapist’s specialty is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a psychotherapy technique that helps people suffering from trauma. Patty was sexually abused by her stepfather and to a lesser extent, her cousin. Despite Patty’s great shame and reluctance to delve into the pain of her past, it became clear that her weight was merely a symptom of the abuse. Over 12 years she worked with a therapist and EMDR, a chiropractor to release trapped “fight or flight” responses, a sex therapist, and attended group therapy for sexual abuse. Sexual abuse is an especially insidious thing because it leaves its imprint on every part of you. Patty accomplished what she desperately hoped was possible but feared was not. Her hope is that others struggling with these issues will be able to see themselves in her and know that all is not lost.
