There are times when the whole world should stop and know that something awful has happened.
There are times when the rest of the world, for even just a moment, should not be allowed to laugh or to smile or to joke or to go on with their lives as if the very fabric of time were not just ripped in two.
There are times when the only thing we can do is join in the suffering.
This is one of those times. Take a moment, please, to stop your world and go visit NYC Watchdawg.
He may never know you were there. And nothing you can ever do or say will ever make things right.
But he deserves, at the very least, for you to stop. For a moment.

[...] I just got back from my youngest son’s birthday party. It was a pool party. 15 six year olds, running round like maniacs. I came home to do some work before the weekend. My newsreader alerted me that Miss Britt had updated her blog, so I went to read. [...]

OMG. Your post is beautiful Britt. I am still in shock over this. I just sat down to eat dinner, when I read this (I know I should not eat at the computer) and I no longer have an appetite. I wish I could give him a bear hug right now.

I can’t imagine the anger, the sadness, the unending abyss of sorrow…

Very well put, my friend.
I am still numb.

I am not coping well. I wish it had occurred to me that I would be so affected by the loss of a blog friend. I am going through all the stages of grief over and over again, except that acceptance step. I’m not able to accept.
Thanks again to Adam and Amy for what you have done to organize us.

Great post, Britt… I’ve been totally choked since I heard the news…

I thought I commented here, but I guess I didn’t. Well said.

What a horrible tragedy…

My goodness, has it really been a year? It’s just as heartbreaking now as it was then. Sigh.
