And you are so right; we need to be thankful there are so many people willing to put themselves at risk for our safety.<br />Swat teams, coroners vehicles, all things indicative of something very awful - was it more than just a little disconcerting to wake up to that? <br />A similar thing happened to my daughter when she was about 19 and living with friends in Calgary. A SWAT team responded to a domestic at the house next door, and they had officers stationed on her front porch - an unbelievably upsetting knock on her door to reality. <br />When you have lived safe and sound and free of violence it must be more than a little unsettling to be confrontted face to face with such a monster.Jillaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533504920962855079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-36435198019757894012011-03-07T19:04:51.919-08:002011-03-07T19:04:51.919-08:00Yikes!

We live in a community of only 4500. But, it's an interestingly diverse and challenging community. Yes, thankful for those who help to keep us safe. What an awful morning for you.

What a sight to wake up to and I hope it turned out ok. You are so right about how many people wake up everyday to such sights as their norm and have to contend with so much. Our police and emergency personnel respond to efficiently that it makes me grateful to live in this country. Hope it all turned out well.

My 83 year old neighbor was removed from his house this summer for beating his wife of the same age. Aparently he suffered from a mental illness and would not take his meds. He had done thos for many years. She stuck to her guns and tragically he killed himself. We never knew, but it sure made me stop and think about what people contend with.<br /><br />I do hope your neighbor is Ok. there's a lot of stress in the world right now and people can;t cope.Razmatazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757164543598076420noreply@blogger.com
