That's awful! What a terrible thing to happen. And yes, something like this will have ramifications not just for the devastated families and friends, but for everyone in the area - and probably, everyone with compassion and empathy. God knows I hugged my little girl that bit tighter this morning. She had her first sleepover on Thursday night, and I spent quite a bit of time worrying about letting her go off. My relief when I saw her again the next day was primal. What these families must be going through right now is unbelievable, unimaginable.
