Prayers for Boston

[mydisneygirls]

My husband was 50 yards away from both explosions as a race photographer. He said the scene was just chaos. Thankfully he is okay and home safely. #prayersforboston

Glad to hear your husband is okay Jen!!!! I have spoken with friends who have relatives that work in the hospitals and to say the least, it was very gruesome and unbearable and they were called in from other departments to the ER. It continues to be a very solemn day here in Boston as we all continue to pray for the victims, their families and the heroic workers who witnessed this tragedy. Also, family members from the Sandy Hook Elementary School were in the stands across from where the first bomb went off as they were there to cheer on their spouses, friends, etc. who were running in memory of those that were lost and we pray for them as well.

I read that! Gosh I hope they are all safe.

What a terrible act. I am praying for all. I hope those responsible are brought to justice. So much sadness in my heart today.

Sad sad day. My prayers are with those in Boston. Senseless tragedy. Just read of CNN that more than 10 people had amputations. Heartbreaking. To be standing one minute and losing your legs the next.

This could happen anywhere too. I live near and go into NYC often, even for big events such as the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade. I'm so sad, that every year we seem to lose a little more of our innocence as American's.

Thank you everyone for your concerns for my fellow Bostonians. Fortunately, I dont know anyone personally that was injured but the stories from people that know people that were there were gruesome. Its scary to hear my friends and family say that they watched the marathon from the spot of the blast in prior years.

As a Bostonian, I want to tell people that while many were hurt and several were killed, maimed, or damaged irreparably by this tragedy, so many more risked themselves to selflessly aid and comfort the victims, and thousands continue to work tirelessly moving forward. I'm proud of our city and grateful to be an American. My thoughts are with the victims and their families.

What a terrible, senseless tragedy. My prayers are with the victims and their families and to everyone who risked their lives responding to or witnessed this horrible scene.

All those affected by the damage are in my thoughts and prayers, especially the victim and their families.

Back in 2007 I had the pleasure and privilege of running the Boston Marathon. There is NOWHERE that makes the visiting athletes and spectators and visitors feel more welcome. Boston gets behind the race and celebrates it and I love them for that.

I have a good friend who ran this year and I am so grateful he is OK.

And DarthMacho, I'm proud of your city too.

With events still unfolding this morning in the chase for suspects that began last night I am thinking and praying for all of our friends and family in Watertown, Boston, and suburbs. Have faith this will come to a quick end and justice will take its course.
