this may be a bit much, but...it has been on my mind.
there was a terrible accident on friday night. it just breaks my heart. and all those times i think of losing my temper with hiro...i cry. i cannot believe this has happened, right here in fukuoka, too. something that really worries me: why did the guardrail break? i figure it must have been because of the speed in which the vehicle was moving (i heard the police figure the drunk hit the other car at about 80 kmh) but...i thought guardrails weren't supposed to break!
the timing is sooo...ugh. i mean, this was the breaking story when i was in labor with hiro. and here i am, about to give birth again and this horrible, heartbreaking thing happens. i'm just crying over it.
and now some sad news...

I heard the news today on TV.Just horrific and so close to home for you.(((Hugs))) to you and give Hiro an extra hug when you go to bed tonight.
I couldn`t hold back the tears while watching the news last night. Saddest thing is that I thought the kids had probably been killed because their parents didn`t have them in proper childseats etc.. but apparently it was the opposite, the parents weren`t able to free them in time because they were in childseats. I can just see families all over using this as an excuse to be even more irresponsible with their children in seats! That said, who knows, had they not been in childseats, they probably would have been killed on impact.
The mayor went to the funeral because the guy was a city employee, drink-driving makes me sick because it is such a terrible waste of lives, I have no idea how those parents are even going to begin to start again!
Talking about horrible news, the massive train crash in Osaka happened while I was in hospital after Joey was born and I was stuck watching footage because there was nothing on TV that day. I swear that was the start of my baby blues.
