I just don't understand....Tonight I learned of another teacher in my district who lost her child in an accident. And another teacher was killed last night while riding her bicycle. I know her husband and I taught her daughter. My heart aches for those families. I just don't understand.

Yes, Lana I agree with you. It is the WHY? of it that has no peace because we just don't understand. Life is such a challenge without the added misery that gets dumped on us. And when the heartache hits us and knocks us down we have to work at transforming this into a meaningful life - but how? I think the best we can do is carry on and move forward with life and live it not just for us but for the loved ones we lost until we a reunited. Live our life in a way that honors the lives of those we have lost. You have done a beautiful job of keeping Alicia very much a part of your life and sharing her with all of us. She now has made many friends that she never knew before her untimely death took her physical body that she had while here away. But now a part of her now lives in so many old and new friends. I think it is very possible that I will one day be able to converse with her how I was allowed to become her friend and learn about her while she was away taking care of other business. I feel she is aware of all the new friends she has made through you sharing her life with all of us. She very much lives on. It is only the physical body she traveled in on earth that has been shed. She is now free to visit far and wide and influence more people then she would have ever been able to in the physical body she lived in. Thank you, Alicia for the amazing person you were and still very much are. Thank you, Lana for sharing her with me. I now count her as a friend and appreciate the influence she has had/has on my life. After the death of my husband I found coping alone with disability was simply too overwhelming to find any life worth living. I am now in my seventh year of coping alone and it is the sharing with my new friends including Alicia that make life rich and meaningful and ease a bit of the heartache of the daily challenges I now face alone. Sending you the best of thoughts and gentle (((hugs))) Patricia

I just read the book "The Shack", which is a book of fiction, but have found some semblance of peace from it on the "why's?". We only give passing thoughts to the grief of others until we know it ourselves. Then, we begin to question. And the "why's and what if's" can make us go bozo. My thoughts are that we cannot all live and accidents happen and I just need to accept that this time, it was my son. And your daughter. I don't understand either, but I never gave it this much thought when it was other people going through it. I hope that makes sense. Love to you, Lana and hope all is going well with your investigations.

Don't understand either. Search everyday for answers. We will never know in our life. Keeping them in my thought. We know the heartache.
Tight Hugs.

Sorry to read your news. There really are no words and no answer to that question of, "why"? My thoughts are with you.

We could make ourselves crazy trying to figure out the answers. It is not for us to know right now. We just have to have faith. I'm am so sad for the families and for you, knowing their pain. hugs, Julia
