Stealing Thunder

Today is the tenth anniversary of my father's death. That is a very large statement and it requires some exploring and I had planned to write about my father today.

And then Boston happened.

I lost my dad to cancer and while that sucks about a hundred different ways, right now it feels like it pales in comparison to the sudden and shocking loss the families in Boston are experiencing tonight.

Perhaps comparing isn't all that helpful. Grief is grief.

Someone lost their 8 year-old son today. I am rocked with anger about an unnecessary evil that changed the path this family now has to take.

Jerks.
