Nightmare in a Text Message

Nightmare in a Text Message
Steve Collins was at the gym when he got a four-letter text message that nearly shattered his world: "My plane is crashing." Those four words were the only ones his wife Vallie had time to send -- not even enough time for "I love you."
Today on "Good Morning America" the Collins recounted their harrowing tale of terror for Vallie inside the plane and for Steve as he watched helplessly as events unfolded.
"I wanted him to know I was thinking of him and the kids if that was my last thought," Vallie said. "I didn't want this time of ambiguity of 'Was she on it? Was she not?'"
After Steve got the message, he said his heart stopped.
