This day has taken a horrible turn. One of Baby J's classmates died today. She had a medical emergency on the playground and the kids had to get the teacher and they life-flighted her to the hospital but it was too late. We don't know all the details of what happened - a seizure was involved. DD11 tutors her on Wednesdays. Both kids are not doing well. School went into lockdown and there will be counselors there tomorrow. I'm trying to distract them with a funny movie right now.
How awful! I hope there will be some grief counseling for the kids tomorrow.
There will be. Baby J didn't realize she died, just that she was taken to the hospital. So I had to tell her. She freaked out.

How awful! I can't even imagine sending your child to school and this horrible thing happened. That poor family. I feel bad for baby j too. I hope the grief counselor helps her.
It sounds like the first day of Feb was a very horrific day for many of you. I sincerely hope this is not a harbinger of what the month is going to bring.

Oh my goodness, that is terrible. I am so sorry.
I can't imagine what her parents feel like. How sad.
