My prayers go out tonight to the family of a Sec 5 high
school student at my sons school that was hit by a train a couple of hours ago
and is thankfully still alert and conscious as he was sideswiped by the train vs.
fully under itL((
It has been an awful last couple of hours as my middle
son was a witness to this and saw this happen and takes the bus home with this
student daily. He was asked by the police to be a witness and part of the
report.
I am going home now to my son and my two other healthy children
and will hug them hard. There is nowhere
else I want to be than home right now.
My heart and soul and thoughts go out to the boy who was
hurt and his family. I pray that he both survives and thrives.
I also hope my own son's hands stop shaking and the visions
of this awful event leave his mind as he struggles with his first true experience
of danger and loss away from the comfort of his own familyL((
As I wrote the other day I was at the end of my rope with
all the exams and end of year activities I realize that my own rope has a long
long way to go and count my blessings for the minor problems that I have in my
life right now.
