My parents lost a friend in Haiti...
Permalink  
 


Two days ago they were overjoyed...

Their friend, Clinton Rabb, was on a volunteer mission when the tragedy struck.  Two days ago, everyone was overjoyed to see that he was alive - they saw by the attached msnbc video (around 45 second mark)  - he was trapped when his hotel collapsed.  they had to amputate a leg, and he was airlifted to Florida.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/34868124#34884846

Sadly, he died this morning from his injuries.

Please pray for Clinton's family.  As well for my mother - he is overcome with grief at his passing, and as she is dealing with the death of my grandma at Thanksgiving, she is really struggling at the moment.

funny - something like this takes on a whole new dimension when it becomes personal.

Bertrand knew quite a few people that died in 911 (mostly from Cantor Fitzgerald),
but to hear my mom crying on the phone really has me shaken as well.

Megan, I am so sorry. It's strange how much more real a tragedy becomes when you personally know someone affected. Many thoughts and prayers out to you.
