thank you for your support, Neil. Both this post and your joke. I so wish I was going to be meeting you at the end of this in Vegas.

I agree with V-Grrrl. I did not know these bloggers either, but they have touched me with their sadness. Prayers and blessings to them both.

I never know what the right response is. I think most people are looking for something they can do to help ease the pain. I have been stunned by these two recent deaths, I can’t imagine what the parents must be experiencing and hope I never have to find out.
I’ll be walking in Seattle, I signed up to walk for a friend’s child but in spirit will be walking for all children.

I’m so frustrated that I can’t be there in real life to help. I don’t want to just send an email or a comment.

It is so easy to add support for tragedy. Online. In real life it’s harder. You have to cook the lasagna, or take someone else’s kids to school, or go repair the broken lines. But I like to hope that the impulse made palpable in Internet posts is at least a sign we could be good. Even if we aren’t. In real life.

Sigh. Like you there are times when the weight of everyone’s sorrows is so heavy, but then there’s the strength of all the connections helping us to stand together…

Balance.

I didn’t know either of these bloggers, but their losses are woven into my days…
