Sadness

Tomorrow night I have to go to a funeral home visitation for an 8 year old. Yes, an 8 year old boy. My coworker's son died in a sledding accident earlier this week. A horrible, freak accident. We're all brokenhearted over this, and everyone is just walking around like zombies at work. It's all just so awful -- it's hard to process, ya know?

Anyway, say a few prayers or just send some love and light over to them, if you wouldn't mind. There's lots of tears being shed around here.

Awful, awful. So sorry.

That's terrible. I'm sorry. I already thought sleds/tobaggans are very dangerous. My dad broke his back sledding with my brother when we were like five years old. Those things should come with warnings & everyone should wear a helmet!
