A chaplain who came to search for survivors compared what he saw when he entered Memorial’s chapel with Dante’s The Divine Comedy. “It was like a picture of hell,” he said on CNN. When members of a disaster mortuary team finally arrived on Sunday, September 11, more than a week after the last living patients and staff members had departed, they recovered forty-five bodies from the chapel, morgues, hallways, LifeCare floor, and the emergency room.
