Talk about adding a whole other dimension to the issue. I remember our dorm's RA coming around that night and asking if anyone needed counseling. Thankfully no one I knew did. Can't imagine being right in the thick of it with that responsibility. Thanks for sharing your perspective with us, Julie. Wow. Talk about adding a whole other dimension to the issue.

You're a DRIVING New Yorker, only one of three that I know. I can only imagine how bad that sucked. 2) I worked in group homes for years and know how the littlest thing on the news can spark something massive. Even the tension in the air does it. So thinking about how the mental dominoes fell and the cleanup that must have gone along with that...that's something I hadn't even considered. 3) I'm not even thinking about what I breathed for those days.
