I have just listened to one about the little 8 year old boy who was killed; if that wasn't sad enough for the family, his 6 year old sister (s dancer) has lost one leg and part of her second leg. Unbelievable.expatmumnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-27014764284023513542013-04-16T11:20:11.646-04:002013-04-16T11:20:11.646-04:00Betsy, did you see this Washington Post story yest...Betsy, did you see this Washington Post story yesterday? http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2013/04/15/if-you-are-losing-faith-in-human-nature-go-out-and-watch-a-marathon/ I thought it was a beautiful reminder of human nature, in the face of great despair. I especially liked the last paragraph because I think it speaks to what we all ache for and yet reminds us of the compassion of the vast majority: that the Red Cross didn't need more blood (more than enough donors), that those that had run 26.2 miles ran even MORE to help, that medical personal ran INTO the fire. We are surrounded by heroes, always, and they show up in the times of great tragedy.Stacey Bethhttp://twitter.com/likes2smileblognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442709270787168376.post-15836498830200483812013-04-16T10:07:52.442-04:002013-04-16T10:07:52.442-04:00very very very bad day. and then also the day afte...very very very bad day. and then also the day after that will be bad for him/her/them.
