Cruel Miscommunication...
Prayers to West Virginia...
To be told that a member of your family is trapped underground with poisonous gases surrounding them and the earth threatening to crush them, and then dreading with all your heart that they may never be rescued, must be one of the most horrible things a person must endure. Imagine the pure rush of relief and emotion that must have nearly burst through their chests when those woman heard that their husbands were found and that all but one of them were alive and well. Then three hours later the cruel truth catches up to the Media and those poor women learn that there are no survivors. Three short hours of sweet relief, not nearly enough to make up for the deep sickening heart breaking loss they are now feeling. It is just inexcusable to put a person thru that kind of pain,to give them hope and then steal it back...I pray that God will wrap his healing arms around all of the wives, children, relatives and friends of the lost Miners and carry them thru the darkness.

Lucy...It is truly unbelievable what the families and that town have endured. I checked the news last night before going to bed and heard that the 12 were alive and was thinking what an amazing miracle they received. I then woke this morning to the news saying that only one had survived. It boggles my mind on how there could be such miscommunication and then to wait three hours before getting the truth to the families. Makes no sense at all.
Luc, such a sad thing to happen in the first place and then to think your loved one is safe and wait for their return only to find out they did not make it. Such a cruel thing to do, they sould have made sure their facts were right before telling the familys.My prayers and thoughts go out to all the families.
Luc,
Once again you said it all in your blog! My thoughts and prayers go out to those families and I know that God will be with them during this awful and trying time. I don't know how far we live from West Virginia, but I am amazed out here how many people still rely on that for their main income. Kelly is alright. There is a lot of stuff going down in the family right now that I really can't talk about here, but suffice it to say that we are all praying.Blondie
