Well, I'm at a loss for words. Tonight one of Caroline's friends was killed in a car accident. Caroline has known Carly since they were in kindergarten. They snowboard together all winter, last year they went to snowboard camp together in Vancouver. They are a close group of girls (6 of them). Yesterday Caroline and two of the girls went to the shore,but Carly didn't go, she was going to meet them on Saturday. I don't know any details, and I don't know how to comfort her. They are all 17 and going into their senior year of high school.
I want to go to the shore and get her, but she said no, she just needs to talk with me. Her Dad said she is better off down there with the other girls, so that they can grieve together. Two of the Moms are with them. I want to pick her up and bring her home and protect her. I also feel guilty because one of my first thoughts (I'm ashamed to admit) was thank God it wasn't Caroline. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated. Hold your babies close to you.
