I am home but wanted to read through the thread before I posted. Thank you everyone for your kind words. It has been a rough day. It was an even rougher night. Thank God for Paula and Allyson and Kristen and Kat and Lori. Seriously. I just was so wishing this day wouldn't come.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I just was so wishing this day wouldn't come.
I'm so sorry it did.

I have been refreshing all day and I am just numb.

I emailed Dani in Winnipeg and I already told the Atlantic Canadian contingent this AM.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
have been hitting my backlog of Good Stuff Happened Today pretty hard. Which also sometimes makes me cry a lot, but, you know.
In the middle of everything today, and the handful of jarring non-ita posts, this popped up from one of the rescue orgs I work with [link]
It has nothing to do with anything except my first smile all day, and the fact that it is possible to come back from godawful pain.
It made me feel good. There was never anything I could do to ease ita's pain. But this guy we could help.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I had to go out and be normal for a meeting late this afternoon. It was weird. I just wanted to be home with my laptop and all of you.
Much love to you Burrell.

Not got a lot to say...
I had to take this section of posts in small small chunks, so I only just got to here.
I nearly wrote "got to the end" and couldn't phrase it like that, just couldn't.
So strange to see all your names again. So strange to return to the house that ita built and know a cornerstone is gone.
I'm going to start on the ita thread now. And then I'm doing a lot of thinky thoughts.
