My heart was pounding as I read your post and I'm sure that was nothing compared to how YOUR heart pounded! <BR/><BR/>DonnaDonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15717351421043156637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14172732.post-1138408358769723872006-01-27T16:32:00.000-08:002006-01-27T16:32:00.000-08:00This made me so scared.

I think I would have lost it..you said you were shaking..I don't think I would have been that well composed. <BR/><BR/>It reminded me of a part of the movie "Crash". (It was out last year...about race relations/takes place in LA) Have you seen it? It's good, by the way, and I don't want to give it away totally...but there's a part of the movie where a Hispanic family's child's life is on the line, and you can just totally identify (especially if you are one) with the feeling of being a parent at the moment of "slow motion", as you described it. Or when the tradgedy was about to happen. I bawled in the theater for about ten minutes because I can't imagine the emotion of losing a child.Jen R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12480735969810649316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14172732.post-1138374741019584002006-01-27T07:12:00.000-08:002006-01-27T07:12:00.000-08:00Oh Lisa - that is one of many "worst nightmare" si...Oh Lisa - that is one of many "worst nightmare" situations we parents have, isn't it?

I went to that little boy's funeral, and I have never experienced anything so heartbreaking in my life. I swore to myself after that my children would NEVER ride their bikes anywhere but at a park or open space where no cars where allowed, and NEVER, EVER on a sidewalk in a residential neighborhood. I will never forget the anguish that our friend went through after losing her son that way. I'm so glad Cameron is O.K.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17310806020847827430noreply@blogger.com
