The tragedy in Boston

I'm two hours west of Boston and am safe. My prayers to all the people and families who have been touched by this horror.


Also, tomorrow I am calling the hospital where I'm a regular donor to see if they will need me to come in for a donation to be sent to Boston. Over 100 in the hospital, many with massive trauma and blood loss, so if any of you are able to donate, please do so.

I'm so glad you're safe, hon! *HUGS*

One of my co-workers had just finished up a business lunch with a prospective client when the bombs went off. He wasn't hurt, but between not getting home until around 10:30 and the emotional shock of seeing the attack, he took today off.

I don't blame him AT ALL.

Glad to hear it.

Thanks. Most of the Commonwealth is still reeling over this.

I can believe it. It is shocking enough from far away.
