Madrid Crash


I just saw on the news that a plane crashed during take off at the Madrid Airport. Usually when those types of crashes happen there are some injured, but they typically are not horrific.

Only 19 people survived this crash. The current count is 153 dead. 20 of which were children. 2 of which were babies.
You can read the news story about the crash here.

I don't know why this hit me so hard. Maybe because I have been so grouchy about feeling sick. Sometimes you forget about what is really important. And how a little case of Bronchitis really isn't that big of a deal.
My heart goes out to anyone affected by this tragedy.
