I'm not sure what I'm feeling. Shock. Disbelief. Sadness. Even as a doctor who is surrounded by tragedy everyday, when something like this happens in your own family, how can one not feel helpless and weak? I sense the strength and composure in other family members right now, and that is reassuring. We have a difficult period ahead of us, and I am currently out of town to be with the family during this crisis. That is the least I can do. But I do feel helpless right now. So many thoughts and memories racing...

My blog will be silent for a short period. Take care everyone.
