Youngeyes Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Some were my patients,some were related to people I know or people who knew other people. ALL were innocent children. Please remember their names in your prayers. God, What do we do now? Who are we? What have we done? Where do we go from here? These were INNOCENT children.INNOCENT CHILDREN!

Sarge Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Doc, I can't imagine such a tragedy. In such a small town no less. Your community will most likely never be the same but I hope it finds a way to heal over time. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lugnut Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 They all have my prayers. Bur Dr- we didn't do it. A deranged 20 year old did. It will take a long time to sort this out in all our heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toothguy Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them. (Mark 10:13-16 ESV) 2 Corinthians 5:8 - We are confident, , and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

Youngeyes Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 The 10am funeral procession with police motorcycle escort just passed the office. I went to Noah's funeral yesterday. I'm glad I can post these things here. People here understand(as much as anyone can) and listen. I know there are people here from all over the world. That's comforting. There's another funeral today at noon. Time to go back in to see patients. Life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCBDoubleTap Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Life goes on. Life goes on, but for so many people touched by this life will never be the same. This is such a senseless tragedy - so many innocent lives lost and families devastated. My prayers go out for these children, their families and the teachers and principal who gave their lives to save others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siphon Odesse Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Youngeyes; thanks for your posts. Hope you and the townspeople find the strength and courage to endure what I can only imagine are very trying times. It must be really hard with all the funerals for these kids. It's just so sad. I have no words for this, only tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straightshot Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 My heart and prayers go out to all that have had their lives torn apart by this tragedy. These were just babies that have not yet had a chance to live life. God bless every one of their families and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngeyes Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Today is quieter so far. The funeral for Victoria Soto is today in another town. She was a hero and all I can think of is I'm glad it's in another town. How bad is that? Last fri and Sat all I could hear were sirens and helicopters, non stop. The relative quiet is welcome. Each day I find walking the streets and seeing the people and makeshift memorials helps to continue to the next day. God I love this town and seeing the passion of it's people in this diificult time. We all look at each other and nod. That says it all. So much emotion in a simple nod. The best part is when the nods turn into tenative smiles. Sorry, I'm rambling here. Life goes on.

Youngeyes Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 People are great. I ordered breakfast at the diner and found out that someone had called and paid for all the breakfasts ordered that morning. I called to order a part from a company(TenPoint) in Ohio . The rep, seeing my address, took a moment to ask how I and the town were doing. The day is filled wth more funerals, but that type of caring is very special. The response, here on the forum, has been of full of kindness and a wiilingness to help share the burden. We are a great nation, filled with a strong and spiritual people. Never forget that. Life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRider Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I have been praying for everyone that has been effected by this horrible tragedy. I pray for the parents of those chilren, bearing horrible grief, the families of the teachers, and the children and adults that are forever changed by the events of that day. Life does go on, but it is difficult. 12 years ago, my wife and I buried our young son. The outpouring of concern from friends and family was a comfort. We found the strength to carry on in Jesus. I take comfort in knowing that my son is with Jesus in Heaven, I will never have to worry about his salvation. My heart still hurts for your town. God bless you, Hurley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngeyes Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Here it is, the day after the world ends. No way was that going to happen. There are still children to bury. We are still here. Life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngeyes Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 Here's just a sample of how terrific the people are here in Newtown, and how much your letters and show of support mean to us. I want to thank all the Benos people who sent their best wishes. It really helped. I wish you all a safe and happy holiday. Please give your families a hug and tell them it's from their Newtown family. God bless. In a Code Red call that went out to residents on Saturday, December 22, First Selectman Pat Llodra told her constituents that one sad milestone had been passed and that an important decision had been made concerning some of the temporary memorials that have been set up around Newtown since the shootings at Sandy Hook School on December 14. Following is a transcript of Mrs Llodra's message: "Good evening, "This is Pat Llodra calling from the Selectman's Office,. "Today, Saturday, December 22, services were held for the last two victims of the terrible assault on Sandy Hook School. "We have reached the first milestone in this long journey we are taking as a community of caring and loving people. "I am calling this evening to inform you of the next step of in the long healing process. "In consultation with the Board of Selectmen and the Superintendent of Schools I have determined a process to manage the many flower, and tribute memorials set up in key locations across town. "The thousands of flowers, letters, prayers, signs and photos, teddy bears and more, will be gathered and processed into soil that will serve in the foundation of a future permanent memorial to honor the slain children and adults. "This will be sacred soil, holding all the sweet messages and symbols of love and hope, of kindness and sadness, visions for a better future, and promises to forever remember the ones lost in this sad attack. "The task of collecting and preparing these items, and then preserving the soil for future use, will begin next week, after the Christmas holiday. "Our Public Works Department will be in charge of this sad work. "Please support them in this effort. "I am informing you of this tonight, so that you will be prepared to see the memorials taken away next week, and so that you will know we treasure these symbols, and will use them to honor the victims. "I wish you and your family a holiday filled with peace and love. "Good night." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff9mmM&P Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Nice idea. The soil will serve as a strong foundation for your community to get back on it's feet. Blessings, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
