U.S. first lady Jill Biden recalls being 'scared to death' that her sister, a United Airlines flight attendant, was on one of the four hijacked airplanes on Sept. 11, 2001.

Biden recalled being"scared to death" that her sister Bonny Jacobs, a United Airlines flight attendant, was on one of the four hijacked airplanes that were flown into New York's World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field, killing nearly 3,000 people.

Biden had gone to teach her class at Delaware Technical Community College, then went straight to her sister's house after school was dismissed. She saw the phone when she went inside. Jill had left a message asking if she'd been watching television. She turned it on and saw replays of the attack on the World Trade Center.

"It's such a special moment to be together with her," Jacobs said."She was there for me at the time that it happened and she actually is always there for me. She is my rock. Everybody should have a rock in their life, and she is mine." "It's a job that she has loved for many years, and I knew that the weight of this tragedy would be heavier for her," the first lady said."When I got to her house, I realized that I was right. She hadn't just lost colleagues. She had lost friends."
