Waiting is the hardest part in such a tragedy. Waiting to hear from loved ones. Waiting for the news to inform us of the extent of the damage. Waiting to learn how many lives were lost or forever altered. My thoughts are with everyone suffering today. If I thought I could help, I would, just as I know many of you would. But waiting is all we can do. Money can't be thrown at this problem right now. And rushing off to the hospital is ill advised for those of us without the training to assist. We would just get in the way of trained professionals or possible put our own lives in danger creating more victims.

Should any of you need emotional support through the waiting, I invite you to come to my home. Sometimes a distraction is the best medicine. I could certainly use it. The waiting is painful.
