My best friend was almost right next door to where the 2nd bomb went off. They went into the store next door, but decided it was too crowded and went to StarBucks just minutes before the blast. So they are fine, but all shook up. I have several acquaintances who were running or spectating, but were nowhere near the finish line yet. My immediate family is all on vacation! So we are ok.
So far, 2 dead, one of whom is an 8-year-old boy. And local hospitals are overwhelmed with about 100 injuries, including many lost limbs. Imagine running a marathon, only to lose a leg at the finish line.....
Pray for the dead and injured, for the bereaved families, and for anyone else who was affected by this tragedy.
