My home has been bombed. Please, please read this and pray for Boston! (Edit: new/graphic pictures.) - Comments

I agree completely.

@ ladyschrei i was looking at pictures on huffington post and ny times' site, and it's crazy to see how many people who aren't "first responders" go to help those who were more seriously injured than themselves, even if they're strangers. it's sad it takes something this tragic for that kind of behavior to be recognized, but you gotta look at every "bright side" in a situation like this ahah

That's good and bad to hear. It's so tragic, but it's good to know so many people are willing to help at a time like this.

@ ladyschrei i've been partially avoiding it myself, but last I heard, 141 injured and the death toll has been pushed up to three. one was an eight year old boy, though on twitter people have been posting pictures of a young girl. the news said a young boy, so i stand by that. there was a two year old child that suffered from a serious head injury and was sent into surgery immediately. there were some critical injuries and many serious ones. i've been hearing anywhere between five and ten of the victims are children.

i know a ton of people had donated blood and they actually stopped taking it because they had more than they seemed to know what to do with. we're blessed to have some of the best hospitals in the country in boston, and people were treated rather immediately. i believe they found two more bombs that police detonated; i've been hearing all kinds of things of potential suspects but last i heard from a reliable source, no suspects. i'm not sure if that's changed yet.

Have they found anything else? Any more bombs or who could've done it? I haven't checked the news these past few hours.

thank you so much everyone, i appreciate the thoughts <3

my friend's father (the cop) got in contact with his wife; he was one block away from the first two explosions, but is uninjured. i still don't know about everyone else. 74 people, three children, have been brought to local hospitals and some with critical injuries (lost limbs, serious burns, etc). many people who were injured were families of victims of the newtown shooting, sitting in the VIP area. it's unbelievable.

It's be said that 12 dead and somewhere around 60 injured now. And they are fnding bombs all over the place, so far they've found five and two have been detonated by the police.

There are some sick people in the world. My thoughts go to everyone affected by the bombing.

no lie this makes me freaking cry. who would so something so horrible? and why? please be as safe as you can, my heart goes out to you and all the people injured and the families of those injured and killed.

I'm trapped at home and can't even go back to my dorm because of this. It's awful! I've lived here my entire life and I just feel so violated!

I'll keep everyone in my prayers as well.

My thoughts are with you all. I'm glad you're okay and I hope your loved ones will be okay as well.

I'm keeping those in Boston in my prayers. I can't believe anyone would that, it's just terrible. :/

PLEASE STAY SAFE!
