OH GOD WHAT A HORRIBLE DAY, I WAS ALREADY SO VERY UPSET BECAUSE I WAS PACKING AND HAVING TO LEAVE MY HOME THAT I WORKED SO HARD TO GET, AND MY PHONE RANG AND IT WAS MY MOM, SHE BROKE THE NEWS AS GENTLY AS SHE COULD, BUT OH MY HEART FELT AS IF IT HAD BEEN RIPPED FROM MY BODY, ALL THOSE INNOCENT VICTIMS AND THEIR FAMILIES, IT MADE ME REALIZE THAT WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH WAS NOTHING COMPARED TO THIS TRAGEDY. ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS THE CHILDREN THAT WOULD BE LOSING THEIR PARENTS, THE ADULTS THAT WOULD BE LOSING SOMEONE THEY LOVED. I WAS ANGRY AT THE MONSTERS THAT COULD DO SUCH AN EVIL WICKED THING. MY HEART GOES OUT TO ALL THE PEOPLE, IF ONLY THAT COULD TAKE AWAY THE PAIN, BUT IT DOESNT. PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALL IN MY PRAYERS. GOD BLESS AMERICA! LISA DONALD
