Heartbreaking, sudden, unexpected and unexplained— the quantity and personalization and record of the human beings who have died suddenly is a gift to us all in these dark times. Each departed soul deserves the dignity and respect of remembrance. This is why we don’t give up. Mass murder must never be ignored. Thank you Mark. — Ginger Breggin
Scrolling scrolling ……..so many people I have met over the past 30 minutes, and they will never meet me… biking, driving, getting ready for dinner, or bed….I cannot wrap my mind around the stories, the “unable to revive,” efforts of friends, passersby…..unbelievable. ~~~Three years ago, did anyone understand what was ahead, walking straight into the hospital, “just check him please, Doctor” and likely never leave…… sick to my stomach….
I've been reading these since Mark started. None of them have actually touched me personally until this week. Swan, the dancer, (2nd at top), was a fabulous young man, fit and healthy. However in order to teach in Italy, he would have been forced to get the shots. He was a mentor of my son, who loves Popping, (a type of hip hop), and my son says Swan was THE nicest person ever. He was a judge too at many competitions, and no matter what, he always had a kind word for everyone.
I want to write these words in his memory, as he died alone. I am beyond angry and my heart just aches more and more every week.

Somebody has to keep track of this sadness-keep the faith.

Justice must happen
