Unimaginable Grief: Fort Hood

My thoughts go out to the mothers, fathers, sister, brothers and friends of those people who were slain in Ft. Hood. Just looking at this photo sends a wave of emotion through me. I imagine she is a mother, and she has lost her child to this senseless act. I imagine that this brief emotion that courses through me is but the tiniest fraction of what she is experiencing. Then, I try to imagine how she will cope with this fundamental loss over the next few days, weeks, years. And that is unimaginable to me.

I hadn't seen any pictures from the memorial until this ... what a devastating, heart-breaking image.
