I can't stop crying...

today is the two year Hebrew date anniversary of my father's passing so I am sure that is contributing but I can not stop crying every time I think of this sweet little angel  http://ayeletgalena.tumblr.com/ who passed away yesterday. She was just 2 months older than my daughter and I just can't stop thinking about her and crying. Luckily DS is at school and DD doesn't realize (for now) that I am so upset. My husband grew up with Ayelet's z'l father so it hits way too close to home. Wishing them lots of strength to get through this unimaginably hard time. They have been so strong throughout this ordeal. I can't even imagine.

Re: I can't stop crying...

  • I found out about her through Help4Ezra on FB. We got swabbed for Ezra because he is a fellow Music For Aardvarks kid and they really advertised the drive for him. It's so sad. I could be any one of our kids. How do you not just get swabbed after you hear these things? It's such an easy thing to do.
  • it is so so sad. I'm sorry Lori, you're having a tough day. I cried for that beautiful little girl yesterday too. hugs to you!

  • Oh, Lori, I didn't know you had a personal connection to the family......the story is so sad for all of us, but, how so very hard it must be for you because it is so much closer.

    I can't believe it's the two year yahrzeit of your dad's passing.  I'll be thinking about you today....

  • It's really so so sad. My heart hurts for these people.

    I got swabbed a few years ago and put on the registry.

    Exactly. As soon as I read about Ezra in our paper, I immediately (like actually walked over to the computer) had a kit sent to me. This could happen to ANYONE'S child, friend, sister, brother...ANYONE. It's so easy to be tested and you could save someone's life. It's so sad to hear this news. My heart breaks for them.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you today. HUGS.
