most of the stories that stick out in my mind are tragedies....I have no idea why...they just do. the one that never goes away is the report on CNN after the earthquake in San Fran a few years ago during the world series. When the bi-level roadway that collapsed onto of cars, there was one car with a mother and young child (about 7-8 years old). The mother died and the boy was stuck. The only way to get the boy out was to cut through the mother's body. They couldn't sedate him cuz they were afraid that his body would go into shock with whatever injuries he might have had. Can you imagine the horror that child must have felt to watch that?
Have a great day!
