Oh sweet jesus </3 I sincerely hope you and your family are okay! You can pull through this and as bad as it sounds, you may have lost your doggy family but at least your sister and her partner pulled through. If you need to talk I am more than willing to lend an ear and a hand.

deal lord...

This is insanity..

I'm so sorry :(

How could the car have fled too D:< what's wrong with people!


I hope they can't sleep at night and it eats them alive.


Stay strong for them <3

People will do anything if they can get away with it.

i wish that wasn't so true

I'm so sorry for your sister's loss with her dogs..
I cant imagine what it's like to see your dog get hit..

I'm glad your sister and her bf are alive though.

I hope the person who did the hit and run gets caught. Thats absolutely awful..

I've ... I've seen far more animal deaths by vehicles than I ever ... -ever- want to again ... And it's so horrible. It's ... I really can't bring myself to say much more, but it's the most -horrible- condition you could ever see a beloved pet in. It's a trauma that can crush you, if you let it.

My heart is absolutely breaking for what Gemily has had to witness in that horrific type of loss. It brings back a lot of agonizing memories. I pray with all my heart that she's strong enough to work through the trauma, find peace within tragedy, and truly heal. Without the crippling emotional scarring that can result.

There's a special place in hell for whatever son of a bitch caused such a horrendous tragedy. There truly is. And I hope someone speeds his or her way there. VERY soon. Prison's too good for scum like that.

Oh yeah. Just let me meet him... "HEY YOU HEARTLESS SON-OF-A-GUN, I THINK YOU NEED THIS!" *BANG! BANG! BANG!* Unfortunately I don't suppose he and I will ever meet.

Omg thats so terrible hope everything will be okay for you, your sister and her boyfriend. :C <3

Oh my God, I'm so sorry this happened to you and your family. I can't even imagine what it must feel like, but at the same time my sister got hit by a truck and broke her leg almost two years ago, so I know what it's like to have something like that happen.

I really hope everyone can cope with this and I hope everyone recovers well. I'm so sorry about your dogs, though. ;A;

Oh my god...
Im really sorry to hear this, read this i gasped and almost started crying.

I hope they heal fast, and im.. so so sorry...

dogs are family. they're as good and loved as any human.. its as if 4 siblings died i bet.. ..i hope that person is prosecuted, and I hope both of them AND you can heal. -hugs tight- i'll be praying. I don't know what happened to the bf, but I can guess it was horrible and I just hope things can be fixed so his life can not be so bad after this.

This just isn't fair. And..i'm sorry..so so sorry it happend. -hugs again-

Being prosecuted is way too good for that son of a bitch--he should be hanged--or crucified!!

O.O thats just horrible..... i hope the other party involved gets what they deserve...... people these days are just uncaring its sickening.

I hope your sister recovers and I'm very sorry ot hear about your dog

I think your icon pretty much sums up my reaction to seeing this.

It did for me aswell. The video reports however...

Yeah... it's just awful.
I don't even know what else I could say... except this.

It's just... ugh.

*Hugs tightly* I'm so sorry... I can say I kinda know what i' like. I lost a dog very recently too

Thats so horried... I hope they catch them.

oh my God.. I don't know if you're religious or not, but I'm praying for you and your family if that means anything. I hope your sister has a fast recovery, and that her boyfriend will recover as well... I'm so sorry to hear this.

This story brought me to tears. Best wishes to you and your family. It is awful to think that someone who do such and thing and just drive away. I am very glad to hear that your sister and her boyfriend are still alive. I really hope they catch whoever did this, and they are punished for it.

Big hugs , :( not much can say beyond wanting your sis and her boyfriend to get best help possible .
You know all our prayers are going out to them ,
And that the A-hole that hits them gets caught and thrown in prison as roughly as possible

I'd like to crucify that asshole.

I was more thinking the Vlad the impaler method

Impale him, crucify him, either way is fine with me!

advise you to read up on how he had them impaled , I watched a TLC documentary on it, O.O the cringe factor

Eh, personally I'm hoping the perpetrator either dies in a fire or as a hit and run victim himself. I've heard of your costumes, though, Beastcub, and I'm truly sorry to hear of this crime. I definitely understand how you feel, as I constantly worry that the cats around our block will be killed by a merciless driver, and it's really not a good feeling. I hope that your sister and Hari are okay, and I feel the lost of your dogs, and hope that Winry and the rest are gleefully chasing phantom rabbits in whatever afterlife there may be.

Wow as you said the whole thing is just a tradgedy you lost 4 family members tonight and could have lost your sister too...Words just can't describe or begin to comfort you right now. Hun I hope your sister and her Bf make a full recovery! and that life will continue on...

;3; I hope they find the bastard who ran. Words cannot console enough, but best wishes towards your sister and her boyfriend I am truly sorry this had to happen to your family.

oh my god, that is hard to even read, I cant imagine what you guys must be going through.

I hope everything ends up okay, and they catch that sorry asshole who fled after doing so much damage. I dont understand how some people can have such little regard for life.

I hope your sister and her BF are doing okay, shame about the dogs though :/ at least the humans in your life survived.

... I, i'm so sorry. I know that it's not any consolation, but i am.
Poor Winry... she was the sweetest dog....
I'm glad Gem is alright.... but i can't say anything except that i'm so sorry...

I know this isn't anything signifigant, but i still wanted you to know i drew it.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8433541/

My prayers are with Gemly and her bf. I hope the dogs go to a good place...

im so fucking sorry
i just
oh my god my heart really does go out to you and your family
im so glad your sister is all right though and I'm truly sorry about her dogs. they are family to anyone thats owned one.
i really can't do anything and i hate that
but you all have a great deal of support coming from us and i want to make sure you know that

Oh my dear god. . what kind of hit and run was that?? everybody including all the dogs hit? Thats like it was intentional wow :( And then the asshole just drives off.
I . .Wish I knew more to say, thats such a tragic situation, i am glad that your sister and her boyfriend are relatively ok though. But the emotional impact. . I am very sorry

How horrible, that just hit my heart.. but I am happy your sister and her boyfriend survived. I can't imagine how anyone could just drive away from that.. ugh.

I'm horrible at what to say when something horrible happens like this. I know what it is like to lose a fuzzy loved one, and I know what it is like to have someone you love and care about hurt and see them in pain. I am sorry this happened to them and you. The person that did the hit and run better come forward. I hope that you can find them and get them to go to jail.
I hope that things aren't as bad as they seem, and that things heal up quickly. I am can only wish you all the best. Stay strong, they are going to need you. <3

loosing the dogs alone is a huge thing, even if just one was found dead it would be a life changing thing for my sister, it took her a year to get over the tragic loss of her cattle dog mutt Misty, Winry she got just after that dog died and she had such a strong bond, this dog was like her soul mate, just last night she was getting upset how the dog is getting old and may only have 7 more years left... now she is gone

she lost all 4, her boyfriend is badly hurt, and she herself is hurt
this is astronomical

I realize that. I really do hurt for you guys. I couldn't imagine losing my one cat, she is like a child to me. To hear that four were lost is just.. I am beyond words.
It is. But you can't sit on the what-ifs. Be there for them when they need you, and we will be here for when you need us. <3

So this ^^^

Wow *hugs* I'm so sorry honey..... I really hope you can pull through, and you have a lot of people here who care about you so I hope that helps you heal. I can't believe the person fled after that that is just terrible.. I hope they don't get away with this.... <333333 we are all here for you.

Reading this made me cringe...who in their right mind would hit and run 6 lives and just bolt?
Barbaric...oh my god...I am so so sorry to hear this...*hugs* ;___;
Please keep us updated, if you can. I hope the best for all of you. </3

Good Gods! wow I hope they recover okay and that they catch that scum bag hit and run ! my heart to you and your family

Oh my god! I can't imagine.. Just can't.. :hugs:

That monster… Anyone who could run over four dogs and two people at once and keep on going like nothing happened has no soul.

I'm so sorry hun. I hope things go well and both your sister her her man recover well. I know you said his life will be changed, but just the same I will pray for a miracle. You and your family are in my prayers.

I don't think I could say enough to express how sorry I am. I hope for your sister and her boyfriend's speedy recovery. Don't dwell on the "if only"'s, it is something you can't change. Just keep fighting and you will all get through this. Hope they catch the driver soon.

Ugh this story makes me sick thinking that that person just kept going after doing this to someone's life! I hope the guilt haunts them to their grave and they can never look at a dog the same!!! Some drivers can be such awfull human beings when it comes to accidents! A driver one cause an accident for my boyfriend and jut kept driving too. Fortunately he was actually okay, but still!! The least someone can do is stop!!! v_v

.... i cant beulive that.... i REALLY hope the catch that bastard, injustice makes my blood boil. I hope everything turns out as well as it can for all of you x.

Oh my God. I'm in total shock..Did the person even stop to help or did that person keep on going like he has no soul? This is terrible..I'm so sorry hun..*hugs*

I send my condolences and prayers to you. I hope that your sister and her boyfriend recover quickly. I hope that justice is brought to your family.

So sorry to hear that, my condolences to you & i hope they recover quickly. *hugs*

Hugs tightly. My best wishes go out to you and everyone involved. I'm soo sorry for the loss, and hope for a swift apprehension of the driver.

Its just disgusting how many people think they can just run away when they do something like this. But it just means the hammer will come down extra hard when they are caught. Thank goodness your sister and her boyfriend made it though, I wish them a speedy recovery, very sorry about the dogs though :/

oh christ, *hugs tightly* my families well wishes to you and yours BC.

Oh my god, that's so scary and terrible! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

There's nothing that I can say that everyone else hasn't already said, but I will send the strongest positive energies your way that I can. I am so very sorry, my dear.

we're here for you. Car accidents are the worst and I know the emotional and physical turmoil that they can cause. My thoughts are with you and I hope for the best.\ I am not religious, but I pray that your sister and her boyfriend recover quickly. I,myself, have been in a few accidents, as well as my friends and I know how rough it can be. I can only hope that they will make it through quickly.
My brother was in a hit in run when i was in high school. I hope justice is brought to you, as well as your sister and her boyfriend. My prayers are with you, your sister, and her boyfriend

Wow I hope they catch who ever did this.
Driving off like that they need the book and more thrown at them.
I wish a speedy recovery.

OH HELL YEAH!

OMG sends lots of hugs and well wishes. :(

Oh dear... my hopes and prayers go out to them both. I'm sorry about their pets, but thankfully they are still alive.

I am so, so very sorry this happened. I can only hope they catch that jerk who took away 4 members of your family. I know I can't do too much, and we don't really know eachother, but I would give you a big hug if I could.

I am sorry my friend this is deeply saddening. I truly hope and pray for you, your family and the husband. I also hope that the man responsible is found and punished severely

I am sorry my friend this is deeply saddening. I truly hope and pray for you, your family and the husband. I also hope that the man responsible is found and punished severely

This is horrible! I'm really sorry this happened. I hope it's not anything too life changing as far as her boyfriends injuries. I can only guess what might have happened, but I hope he and your sister recover quickly!

Sends a prayer for your entire family and your sister's boyfriend's family
sends hugs and a shoulder to cry on.
hopes all dogs are happy on the rainbow bridge chillin with my recently lost bunny
can also send $$$ if you need help with medical bills. feel's horrible wishes I could come over and help.

wow, i had a similar thing happen to my sister...but ima not spill my drama case here, *hugs* but i understand how this feels and i hope the very best for you and keep pushing on its all you can do at this point

I don't know you... But you have my thoughts, prayers, and most sincere condolences. I certainly hope all will turn for the better...

when I talk to Gem I'll see, they have to operate on her leg, she has a compound fracture and may not be home for a few days

omg we have you guys in our hearts everything will be ok just be strong

My condolences. I am actually really angry for you now. I hope they catch the asshole who did this, and make him pay.

Hun, you're in shock. That's why you're so calm. Don't let the "what if's" get to you. There's nothing that could have been done differently. Even if you had made them stay, they could have been hit the next day... Shit happens, and there isn't anything we can really do to stop it. The only thing we can control is how we prepare for and react to these situations. Take a hot bath. Make yourself scream. Try to enjoy a hot cup of tea or coffee. Hell, watch "The Notebook" and have a good cry.

Hope they catch the driver...major charges coming their way, especially since it was in a crosswalk (some places double the fines/charges, dunno about where yall live). I don't want to sound insensitive, but sue the bastard. Medical expenses, stress, trauma, commuting to and from the hospital, lost incomes, the monetary and emotional values for each of the animals, the emotional trauma caused by their deaths, as well as any "fuzzy funeral" costs... And frankly, I wouldn't care if it was a frightened single mother that didn't know what to do. It's better to be humble than humiliated, and the charges would have been far less severe. And to hit them hard enough to kill four animals and severely injure two humans...that's unacceptable. The speed limit couldn't have been more than what, 35? 45? More than enough time for a driver to slow down if they weren't doing something stupid or speeding. Any lawyer would take this case in a heartbeat and their costs would be included in the court awarding.

I agree with this, but screw sounding insensitive. This person needs to pay. They didn't just hurt someone. They KILLED and SEVERELY messed up lives forever. People who are reckless and careless behind the wheel of a vehicle make me so angry.

i totally agree with this. i hope thay get the person. and i wish you and your family the best of luck *hug*

I...don't even know what to say....my thoughts are with you....

I know that you and your sister were very close to your dogs. and it is hard to lose such a friend so close.if you need someone to talk to, please feel free to send me a message, we can talk it over if you'd just like someone to listen.

I do not know if you are religious or not but this poem has always helped me greatly:
I'm Still Here Friend,
please don't mourn for me I'm still here,
though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day and within your heart I long to stay.
My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart as long as you keep me alive in your heart.
I'll never wander out of your sight-I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach-I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.
I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around and the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.
I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine, and you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.
When you start thinking there's no one to love you, you can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees, and you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.
I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend, I'm everyplace!

?

Iam sorry for the loss of the dogs. I hope your family gets better. I will pray for you and the family. Just stay strong and god will take care of you and the family.

I'll pray for you.

i am so, so very sorry :( my prayers are with you in this sad time *hugs tight*

Oh my goodness... I am so, so sorry. I can't imagine losing all of my dogs like that, and nothing I could do. I am so sorry for your sister, and her boyfriend, too. It's been an incredibly tragic week for a lot of people I know. :/

I am stunned that someone was going so fast and so quick in a residential area as to kill the dogs and cause terrible injury to the people involved. I hope that they catch the person fast, because anyone who doesn't stop after hitting anything (human or animal) under these circumstances needs to be off the road now before they create more tragedy.

If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know. Again, I am so, so sorry.

My heart goes out to your family. I hope and pray your sister and her boyfriend will be alright. I hope they catch the person who hit them. I am so sorry for you and your family.

I am so sorry. I know there aren't words that can be said right now that will bring much comfort to you or your family. I've been on the side watching a sudden life changing emergency happen in my family (was my dad) All I can say is there are a lot of people here who care and are here to support you. I hope the doctors take good care of your sister and her bf and that they will both be ok. I also hope who ever it was that did this is caught and bless that person who saw it happen and was willing to help both you and the police.

i cannot even begin to imagine what you and your family are going through right now, if there is any way we can help let us know.

also, I lost all of my pets when I was 15 due to my father committing suicide and taking them with him. On top of that I have a lot of pets with short lifespans, so I'm around death more often than I should be. I would suggest getting a puppy after all of you recover from shock and most of the emotional turmoil to try to fill the void, not to replace anyone just to help with your own recovery and to fill that emptiness.

You have my best wishes for your sister and her boyfriend. I hope everything works out okay.

Oh my God...
I'm glad your sister and her bf are okay... I'm so sorry for your loss. This is very horrible... ):

Just... take one day at a time. That's really all you can do at this point. ;;

So sorry,Hun. Sending prayers up for all.

you have my prayers. I hope to god that he'll be alright. I pray that the driver will be made to pay for their recklessness.

i'm sending my prayers and well wishes and healing energy to your sister and her bf. i'm glad they are relatively okay. and i hope for a good recovery.

i am sorry to hear about her dogs. it's hard losing someone or something you enjoy and love deeply. i'm so very sorry. please also give her my condolences for them.


please keep us updated.

I'm so very sorry. :(

I am terribly sorry to hear that such a tragic thing has happened to you and your family. I am pleased that your sister and her partner are doing alright. You have my condolences for the dogs. I have been a watcher of yours for quite some time on DA and know just how much they mean to both you and your sister. I do wish I could help..I truly do. I am more than willing to lend a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on if you so need it. And please...Don't dwell on the "What if's" Be strong, you and your family are in my thoughts.

Wow, stay strong there, situations like this are quite clearly never easy, and if you need any comfort at all, you know that 90% of people whether you know them or not are wishing you and your family strength and we're all here if you need a vent.

I may not know them.. but my god i feel like crying after seeing this....... i really hope everything is ok.. i really do..

This journal stopped me in my tracks. I'm so no quick to emotion,
and text never evokes this kind of response from me, but here I am,
tearing up. I feel for everyone involved. I hope for peace of mind
for all of you, when time has had its chance to heal wounds.
Everyone has it in them to be strong in times like this,
even when it feels impossible to be. You all can persevere.
Good thoughts go out to you and to everyone effected by this event.
I will not stop thinking of all of you.

Wow, I don't know what to say. Something like this is so traumatic and terrifying... Right now you're calm because you're in shock. A huge change has happened and your body is preparing itself to react. Go take a warm bath, and have some cocoa or something like Krazinik said. If you take any anxiety medication keep it close by.

Try not to think about how you could have avoided the situation. Truth is, you couldn't, the only one who could have avoided it is the person behind the wheel of that car. It is their fault and their fault only. Remember that this is fate (I don't know if you're religeous) and the worlds way of reminding you that you still have time with your sister.

Don't do any work to try and distract yourself it'll just remind you of outside stress which will make the it more painful when reality hits. Watch a movie, play a game, do something you genuinely enjoy to help yourself ease into waking up so it doesn't just hit you suddenly.

I am so so so sorry this happened to your family. My thoughts and prayers are with your sister and especially her boyfriend, and I give prayer that the person who hit them will be caught. When something this serious happens the police always put extra effort into catching them, and lets be real, the fines and sentences here will be insane. You guys'll probably get pain and suffering too. This person will be fully punished for their recklessness.

pain and suffering as in the judge will probably order the person behind the wheel to pay you for pain and suffering.

Holy crap, my thoughts prayer and everything in between are with you dear, bless the doggies as they cross the rainbowbridge, and may many blessings be with you family and everything tunrs out all right

I am shocked, just shocked (;y;)
Me and my bunnies will pray for you (TTyTT).

I don't have words, there are no words when you lose loved ones, two legs or four.

I don't pray, and I'm not religious, but I wish you the best, and hope he comes out ok.

My heart goes out to you.

I'm glad your sister is okay..
I pray for her boyfriend's recovery as well
and.. may I ask was it all four dogs that were killed? or was it one?

My condolences and best wishes to you and those you love.

all 4 but the one was more like a child than a dog to her

oh god that's really sad :c I can sympathize with an
animal feeling closer than just a normal pet.

I hope everything turns out for the best despite it now. I'm so sorry that this happened to your sister and her family. do what you can to remain calm and not over stress yourself. I'm sorry i can't offer any better advice.

be strong. your sister needs you now. i think your handling this amazing. your doing a great job at being there.

Sending all the love, good thoughts, and prayers in the world. youll get threw this.

Oh.... no, no, no! You'll be in my thoughts. Please be okay, you and your loved ones.

My thoughts and prayers and...... everything.... my whole heart goes out to you and your family.....
I was sitting here, petting my cat as I read this.... and I just pulled him into my lap and held him....
I can't imagine the pain you are feeling....
I am so sorry..... I hope to god you do not loose any more... I'll pray with all my might that he pulls through.....
Stay safe, try and stay sane, try not to let sorrow consume you.
*hugs tight* be strong for your family and for yourself

I just heard about this a couple minutes ago. I'm truely sorry to hear what's happened.

I wish for the swift recovery of the boyfriend and your sister.

I hope the driver is caught soon. Such a menace doesn't belong on the road.

It saddens me that all four dogs were lost. I can't imagine how hard that is, and how hard it's going to be, for everyone.

loosing the dogs is the worst

as bad as some of the injuries are lost lives cannot be replace

I mean I keep thinking of how hurt Hari is and how that should matter more than the dogs, but he is alive and not paralyzed so right now the loss of the dogs is the worst

hell if I had to choose between losing the house to a fire or Winry dying I'd choose the house, the dog mattered that much to my sister and thus to me

I understand what you mean. To a lot of folks, a pet is more than that. They're family.

Losing a loved one is never easy, I agree. I've been there. I've lost human and animal loved ones. Never gets easier. But to lose them like that...

I wish you and your family comfort during this time of sorrow.

Glad the boyfriend is doing well in that regard. I was scared about he and your sister.

dear god i pray for u and ur sister and her boy freind and every one

geezuhs fuck tonight just seems to be a night for death -shakes head-

im sorry to hear that and i hope your sister and her boyfriend will be ok with a swift recovery.

it is never a fun tihng to go through. but i can tell you this do not blame yourself and think about all the whats ifs because nothing will change the fact of what happened.

Oh no! how horrible.
Crossing fingers that your sisters boyfriend is gonna be allright. What a terible tragedy :(
*hugs*

i am so sorry about the lose and i will pray for everyone

I... can't believe what I just read.. four dogs lost in a tragedy and your sister and her bf hit..
I just... you guys will be in my thoughts for tonight. I wish you guys the best in healing.. Can't... stop..crying..

I bet that ass hole was drunk thats why they didnt stop DUI! God people today that is terrible. But your right to think that your sister has made it! Thank god and I pray that her boyfriend will be alright as well. The dogs are a tragity but they will live on in your hearts and at least they arent in any pain. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I'm sure as far as the situation goes that things will turn out as okay as they can. Dont give up, and remember there are thousands of us here for you!

Oh my goodness
I am speechless
Umm... Well hun, just remember that it is not your fault in the slightest bit, just try to stay calm, and things will be better in no time

I am glad that he will pull through, I am still keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. I am sorry that it happened..and honestly I don't know what else I can say to something like this.

omg... i'm sorry for what happened....
I Hope your sister has a haste recovery...

As for the dogs... R.i.p....
and as for Winry.. the only one i ever seen.. such a sweet dog... may she be barking up in the clouds...
I am deeply saddened from the losses...


As my inner carfolf is talking to me he says: I hope the person responsible for this tragic incident suffers the pain of a slow death with the power of a thousand dying suns. I seriously want that.... pardon my french.... I want that fucker off the streets and i want torture to be a punishment again just for that one person. I want them to feel the pain we all are feeling right now. Make that Infinite times worse.

I hope they recover quickly and I hope the police catch the idiot that did this.

I am so sorry for your loss ;n;

hope your sister and her boyfriend are going to be alright, my thoughts are going to your family and to his. R.i.p to your lost furry friends, may they rest in peace.


I hope they catch the bastard that did all this, he doesnt deserve to be on the road

Oh my god Beastcub. I'm so sorry to hear this. Thank gods your sister and her boyfriend will live. I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of all of the dogs. I hope the police find the monster who is responsible for this. I will say a prayer for the souls of your lost canine friends, as well as for the speedy recovery of your sister and her boyfriend. My heart goes out to your entire family. Please take care of yourself.

I am putting a fake journal up to hide this one from public view

I am fairly sure my niece does not have an account here (she got a DA account not long ago and made darn sure I knew it, lol) but I do not want her to learn this way so just in case she has an account and is so is not watching me by some miracle I want to hide this

SO DO NOT COMMENT ON THE JOURNAL on the front page please about this, and no shouts either

...I am way too calm

I used "lol"

I guess I am just happy my sister only has a broken leg and her BF's condition, while bad, is not life threatening

He has my respect, and quite a bit of my gratitude for reacting so well. Still, my best wishes to you all.

You're in shock, that's why you're so calm. Take care of yourself, don't overdo it.

It's the adrenaline keeping you calm, the same thing happened to me when my grams almost died. It's like half my brain shut down.

been 12 hours now
still awfully calm

part of me hopes I just handle tragedy well and I will continue to be the calm cool collected one who finds medical and social security info and gives it over the phone like just now
I kind of hope I will continue to feel okay

... the other half of me knows that at some point in the next few days I am going to loose it and bawl

Don't be afraid of the shock stage, the numbness, it might seem heartless to those looking on but it feels a lot better than freaking out and becoming utterly useless because of grief and fear. When this happened to my brother 5 years ago, I stayed "calm" for months. (It felt so WEIRD) I couldn't accept that anything could take my stubborn little brother away from me, even with all but a few bones in his body broken. I couldn't accept that he'd never walk again, even though one leg was "powder" and the other "crushed." I turned out to be right - he's damned stubborn and a bonafide miracle and living a full (if not pain free) life now, beyond all reasonable expectations. I'm glad my faith in my brother being too much of a hard head to let things get him down was correctly placed ^x^;

The calm denial stage was a blessing because it got me through the worst of it, kept me from being preoccupied with all the what if's and fears for his future that, fortunately, didn't come to pass. It really hit a few months later after he was in a rehab hospital, that I could have lost him, and just how bad and long his road to recovery would be :( But at that point, he was safe, and I could break down and cry without fearing what would come next. It was quite a long time before I'd completely come to terms with everything, but fortunately everything worked out for him, and my brain shut-down kept me from being preoccupied with the What If The Worsts that my head usually loves to torture me with - -; Yay for shock to preserve sanity, for a change.

So yeah... ramble aside... don't be afraid of either the numbness or the bawling. They'll both come in their own time, when you need them to. And the numb calm part, though it makes you look a bit out of place to outsiders, is a good thing for your own sanity and helping things go smoothly. Don't let their perceptions of your cool head in the face of all this get you down.

I think you hit the nail on the head

this is not over, Hari is still not in one piece yet, he has more surgery and they already had issues controlling the bleeding when they last worked on his pelvis

there is a sort of feeling there not to cry yet because I don't know if it will get worse

My prayers are with him and your sister, and all your families... This is just too much. I read the updated news articles and... fffff. *hugs tight* You're really something, being able to handle this as you are, even with the benefit of the numb stage, I don't think most people could be this strong in light of what you've seen and lost :(

My family has yours - and especially Hari! - in our thoughts and prayers. <3

I dont know you personally but I offer hugs to you and your sister and her BF....

Oh wow... a hit and run. What horrible people!!! What a horrible story >.<
I'm so sorry. I'm sorry about the loss of the dog. My pet died the same day that my husband and friend died in the car accident. Can't say I know how you feel but it sounds like we've both been through the brink of hysteria. Be happy that your family are alive and I shall pray for their speedy recovery. And you still have your bf to hold you close. What really gets me is the fact that some nasty person would do that and run.... Very evil. Or they got some sick condition

I am so sorry to hear such a tragedy has come to your family. :'(
It's good to hear your sister and boyfriend were not hurt more than they were, and I hope they recover quickly. D:
I hope they catch who did this, may the dogs rest in peace. :(

I cannot say anything that will ease your pain, I just hope your sister and her bf pull through oki.
It's heart breaking to loose a life long animal friend, I can't help but think the dogs will be wagging from wherever they are now.
They helped take some damage away from there beloved masters, however
Horrible is the multimate human animal bond :(.

You also have the support of a friend of mine, dear. He is doing much praying and offering for your fortune... With all of the loving feels your getting from this, I'm sure everything will turn out alright. :]

Just speechless. I hope you and your family/loved ones will be all right through this horrible time. My best wishes to you all...

I'm so very sorry for your loss, but I am also -so- relieved that your sister and her boyfriend are going to pull through. Good out of bad is better than nothing, terrible as the entire situation may be. I'm not a praying person, but my thoughts will be with you and yours and I sincerely hope that everyone comes through as alright as you can be after something like this.

I will keep you in my thoughts and hope your sister and boyfriend are able to physically recover soon and you can be there for them with the emotional sadness that will linger.

I'm so sorry for your loss :C i hope your sis and her bf make a quick recoverly. *hugs*

you know how people who faced life changing things say how it changes how you see things and they now appreciate different things in life and what not

its true

as blunt and awful it is to say this, it takes an event like this to put things in perspective
so much petty crap that seemed important is now not at all important, the argument the other day about flip flops seems like such bull shit now

and as awful as this all is, to have such clarity about what is truly important, its comforting.

I feel like a haze has been lifted

Well its good the yaze is lifted but sad it happened with such events. I am glad you are handling it so well though it is a tough situation for anyone to be in.. but what you do now makes the difference since everything happens for a reason. I wish you the very best outcome down this path. And as for your departed may they be waiting for you at the gates.

HAZE not yaze..

Don't feel that way. Things people deem "petty" may not be something to mark on the grand scope of things, but they're important life moments that we share with people.

I am glad this event though, has given you clarity and lifted you to a higher place.

I'm not quite sure to say :/ I'm glad your sister and her BF are ok...as for the dogs...I'm very sorry for all of your losses. Quite literally weeping for them :(. Your family, including your sisters BF, will be in my prayers tonight...

Its so sad to hear what happened a tradgeity indeed! I will pray for your family I do hope your sister and her boy friend recover fully and soon!

You'll feel the pain later hun, you're in shock ;c

Just pleaaase dont hold it back.

I'm so sad that your dogs did not make it and I hoopppee your sister's bf does survive because he is a saint for what he did

We're all here for you

Wow Beast, you've got me crying for you just as I read this outloud to my boyfriend. Hari is some guy, I hope he can pull through! I am sorry for your loss of the dogs. It's never easy to lose a pet... and 4 in the same night, wow. It's good that your sister is alive and doing god, I hope the same for her boyfriend as well. People are such assholes, the person that hit them will get theirs in the end. I hope the cops find them. Your entire family has a lot of support in the fandom, keep us updated please.

Good*

O.O

...

Really no response does justice to such horrible events.. just crazy how things can happen in an instant..

I'm local as you might recall, and I don't have much going on right now schedulewise .. so if you need additional help,transport,whatever,whenever feel free to contact me. Best wishes for a good outcome for your sister and her boyfriend..

my goodness! what a terrible incident... a get well soon to your sis and especially to her boyfriend! I hope they can save him.

and may that driver lose their license forever, and end up in jail for a considerable time.
then again it won't change much...


and, please don't go "what if, what if..." it only leads into a downward spiral. as harsh as it sounds, look forward. life goes on.


best wishes.

Your sister's boyfriend is an angel sent to protect her. No doubt about it.. I'm so sorry to hear about everything that has happened, Beast. Take comfort in your friends and family --they will help you through all of this. And in times of trouble, optimism is an amazing weapon to fight the odds. Stay hopeful for Hari. Everything will be okay in the end.

I'll be praying for them and I'm sure many of your other followers will too. I'm so sorry that this happened.

Very sorry to hear about your loss.
But good to hear also that your sister & her BF are in stable condition. I really salute him for protecting your sister in that manner.

I really can't say much more that has already been said... I really do feel for you And pets, they are family.

Just remember not to blame yourself for this. It is so easy to think that its your own fault, and that fate is cruel in the way that there are an infinite amount of possibilities in which things could have been different, but honestly it is neither here nor there.

I know what you mean about opening your eyes and lifting a haze. It may seem cruel, but it can really force a person into reality and can change a person for the better.

What a man for pushing your sister out of the way <3

I send my condolences and wishes

/o.=.o\

Oh no. I am so very sorry Beastcub. Your sister and her boyfriend will be in my thoughts.

My condolences fend.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I can offer nothing more than that I'm afraid.

This is truly a tragic event. My heart goes out to you and your family.

My thoughts will be with you Beastcub. I cannot fathom how this would feel and I pray for everyones safety.

I wish your family a speedy recovery and that everything goes well. You and your family will be in my prays. I sincerely hope they catch the guy and get him good. What they did was plan evil and wrong. Hit and runs are terrible. Shows a lack of responsibility in their character. I am sorry for the loss of the dog. Pets are so much more than pets in a small family. I wish you all the best. You are in my thoughts.

Oh gawd...I'm sitting here crying about this myself...I hope they get better soon and that everyone is well in the long run. I pray the driver gets what he or she deserves. I wish there was a way I could help, but I can only give you my support.

*hugs* I don't even know what to say that could possibly sound comforting.
Your family is in my thoughts, I hope your sister and her boyfriend recover well.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers, hun, and I hope recovery from surgery is swift for the both of them.
I wish there wasn't an ocean between our locations so that I could be there for you properly, but virtual hugs is the best I can do for now.

Hang in there, we're thinking of you and yours *hug*
~

You are being very strong, dear. Keep your chin up, and we will keep our thoughts and prayers for you and your family. If they need support, I have no doubt that you have many supporters.
Thinking of you,
-Skynny

I hope they both are fine and they will both be in my prayers

I'm so sorry this happened to your family. Don't forget that you aren't alone and your sister is still alive! That is the most important thing.

WOW.

I really cannot say anymore that was said, but... my family always tells me everything happens for a reason.

I am not the religious sort, but I can tell you I believe in the Rainbow Bridge, and I do believe in the courage of animals.

If anything, those dogs sold their soul so that your sister and her boyfriend could continue on. They must have loved them very, very much.

Accidents... they happen. Sadly, we're only mortals. Sometimes the most casual event just... doesn't do the same way.

My deepest condolences, and I wish only the best for your sister and her boyfriend. She is very, very lucky not only that she only suffered injuries on her leg, but that her boyfriend was so noble to make sure she was going to be okay and sacrifice the brunt to save her.

Keep us updated. You'll all be in my thoughts.

I'm so sorry this has happened to you and your family :( I can't even imagine. You're all in my thoughts

oh my god....
i don't know what to say other than to offer my condolences at the loss of the fuzzy ones and that i will keep your sister and her bf in my thoughts and prayers
*hugs*

I'm just stunned reading this. It just doesn't seem real. I'm so sorry that this happened to your family. I'll keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

I hope, so sooo badly, that karma will come back and bite whoever that dipshit was in the ass. HARD. I'm so very sorry for your loss, and I wish only the best for your family.

holy crap well pl are just retarted drivers LIKE WTF????? Good luck with everything im sorry this happened i hope everyonee will be okay

I'm so sorry for your loss, you're in my thoughts. :( I wish you and your family the best.

If you need anything we are here for you.

I pray this individual who committed this crime is brought to swift retribution by a jury of his peers that declares this individual morally bankrupt, careless, and without conscience so that this individual may serve 10 years in prison, at least, for the harm done.

In the meantime, I hope everything else goes well, for srs.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Oh hon............ What can I say????? ...................... Offers HUGS for all of ya.

Oh god that is so sad.. my heart aches for you guys. Glad to hear the people are ok but I just can't believe Winry died.. I know how close her and your sister were, they were like one being when I met all you guys years ago. I am so sorry for your loss.. when everyone is in the clear and you are out of shock you should really make a memorial video or something for them, it sounds like they gave their lives so your sister and boyfriend would live.

How is his leg?

it is all over the news now so i guess I can share it...

Hari lost his leg at the knee, they could not save it, and his pelvis is in 2 pieces, he had severe bleeding for 3 hours and was on blood transfusions but is stable now and sedated.
my sister just went into surgery to repair a compound fracture of her lower leg

thank you for keeping us updated, ive been popping back every other hour or so ;-; glad hes stable now

I wish you and your family, sister, boyfriend a speedy recovery, and a peaceful afterlife for the dogs who unfairly had to die. :/

Stay strong, bc!

omg thats horrible, i hope your sister and family recover, i hope the police find the hit and run car andsome justice is done.

that sounds pretty horrific and scary. best wishes to everyone.

Oh god Beastcub, this is, horrible. Just, horrible, made me cry just reading. I am so very very sorry about this, people truly are so very cruel. I hope the people who did this get what they deserve.
My thoughts are prayers are with you and your family. I will pray for your sister, and her boyfriend. I hope they recover quickly.
Im so very sorry for the loss of, all your dogs. That is truly awful. I hope your family can heal from such a sudden loss.
I send many hugs, and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Jeez. I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I wish I could do something for you maybe help raise money for your family if you need it. *hugz you softly*

You are a really great person and I'm sorry to hear about this.

(hugs) im so sorry this happened to u....i also know what its like to lose a dog that u love, my poor dog brandy, she got ran over by a drunk driver....i still never found out who did that.......

My sincerest condolences. That's a terrible tragedy and it shouldn't happen to anyone. I'm glad they're both going to live, I hope they'll both be able to walk normally after this. It would be a small consolation, given they'll probably carry the physical and emotional scars of it for the rest of their lives.

it is all over the news now so i guess I can share it...

Hari lost his leg at the knee, they could not save it, and his pelvis is in 2 pieces, he had severe bleeding for 3 hours and was on blood transfusions but is stable now and sedated.
my sister just went into surgery to repair a compound fracture of her lower leg

oh no :( I wish them both a speedy recovery.

Oh my.
I hope for the best outcome for you, and my condolence.
This is very much a tragedy, and I was very shocked while I read this.
Hopfully the courts will take a firm hand with the driver of that car.

While this is a small consolation the dogs are not suffering. In the full picture they could have been suffering for days or weeks or even years from the accident. While it sucks SO HARD I know at least you know they arnt in pain. It is upsetting that they were probably scared though I hope they didnt see it coming. I am glad to hear your sis and the bf are at least ok as far as physical problems go. I do hope they find the dick head who didnt stop. Honestly. Who dosnt stop?

My god, I'm so sorry. ;_; I am thrilled to hear that your sister and Hari are going to be okay, though.

You have all of my best wishes and more. Good luck with everything, and if you need something, don't hesitate to contact me. (I know we don't know each other, but even still. don't be a stranger.)

all of my thoughts and prayers are going out to your family <3

D: How horrible! I dearly hope there is no lasting physical damage for either your sister or her boyfriend from this.

it is all over the news now so i guess I can share it...

Hari lost his leg at the knee, they could not save it, and is pelvis is in 2 pieces, he had severe bleeding for 3 hours and was on blood transfusions but is stable now and sedated.
my sister just went into surgery to repair a compound fracture of her lower leg

the news is calling Hari a hero, one witness says my sister very well would be dead if he had not shoved her

I'm sick and in shock. These thing's can't happen..just can't. Contact me...I want to help

I am playing phone tag like crazy, just gave med and SS info to my bro, before that talking to a reporter and giving them the photos, before that getting an update on Hari
my bro is supposed to call me back soon as is my sis's friend Sarah

I know it's crazy now...but you are *not* alone. You will have help Contact me when you can. I will text my number to her phone

I am in tears. I so very sorry for all that has happened to all those you care about.

Good god. I'm so sorry. My condolences to the family members that were killed. I hope your sister and her boyfriend make a speedy recovery.

I cannot imagine my life without my dog. But four gone? .. wow .. I am just so sorry for your loss. There are many people here for you as your support. My thoughts go out to your sister ..

What were all the names of the dogs?

i am so sorry to hear this! you are in my thoughts! i am very sadden to hear about your beloved pets. i hope a speedy recovery for your whole family, emotionally and psychically.

All of my prayers are with you and your family in hopes of a speedy recovery, im very sorry over the loss of your pets.

This is terrible to hear. We may not know one another, but you and your family will have my prayers this night. :(

Oh my God. I'm so, so sorry....

I know how fast things can change. I've had things happen including tragic passings, but nothing quite like that.
Were the dogs small? I've never heard of four being hit and all dying at the scene at the same time like that... how unbelievably tragic.

I'm so sorry.

I'm really sorry this has happend to you. I pray for your sister, her boyfriend and you! This is very tragic And I can't imagine anything like this happening to anyone and how heartbreaking it must be. Please keep each other close and safe.

Im so sorry, im just so sorry that this had to happen, im not the greatest with comforting words, but please remain strong for not just you, but for your sister and her BF. Like so many others, i know what its like to have someone ripped away from you, what its like to have a pet suddenly gone, and all i can say is be there for your sister, and seek comfort in friends and family. <3

I have a 13 years old sister, as well as 5 dogs, if anything ever happened to them, i couldnt even bare the thought, i dont know if you are religious or not, but i shall keep your sister in my thoughts and prayers. <3

I am deeply sorry..my heart sunk when i read this..you are all in my prayers

dude.... I'm so sorry nobody should have to go through that

I am so very very sorry for the loss of those 4 loyal companions, they will always be with you in spirit, I pray that they catch that peace of trash and make an example of them, I pray they were able to save Hari's leg, and I pray that they make a full recovery.

I'm so, so sorry to hear this :( My thoughts are with your family... I know I don't really know you, but I can't imagine the pain you all are going through right now. I'm hoping they can catch who is responsible.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers <3

I'm so sorry.

I don't know you.. But I'll be here for you in any way I can.

That's a horrifying story. I know what you mean about Winry, it's how I feel about my Esme Marie. She's my doggie soul mate. This situation really hit home for me, and I hope all goes well. I know this doesn't mean much from someone you don't know, but I hope everything goes alright. Be sure to let your family know that the fandom is sending them well wishes, even though it wont mean much, it might make them feel just that tiny bit better.

*hug* Your family will be in my prayers.

Oh dear... ._. I'm very sorry to hear about this. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I hope they find the person responsible for this and give them what's coming to them.

At first I had to check if its was April the first, then felt the colour drain from my face while reading. As with everyone else, I so sorry to hear about it..I'm just glad they are both ok, its scary you hear this happen to people, but its people you don't know..I'm gutted for you, we are all here if you need to talk, better catch the asshole who hit them. :/ Please keep us up to date.

May the poor little dogs rest in peace... May your sister and her boyfriend heal.....and may that dickhole get what's coming for him.

I am so sorry to hear about this, I pray for both your sister, her boyfriend and yourself and hope the gods will guide your dogs to a happy place until they can be reunited with their family again. And i hope they catch the ass that did this and give him hell for what he has done.

So sad to hear they could not save his leg...this is all just so horrific. I pray to god that you, your sister, Hari, and both your families get justice for this, and are able to heal in time.

I was sent here by a good friend, so you don't know me. But all my best wishes are with you and your family.

My deepest condolences. Truly, we all feel the loss that your family is experiencing right now. Such an act should not go unpunished, but I believe the long arm of the law will catch up with the criminal.

While all we can offer are words of encouragement and sympathy, today, our hearts are united as one as we mourn the fallen, admire the heroes, curse the wicked, and hope for the best. As a community, we wish your sister and her boyfriend a speedy recovery. Our prayers and thoughts are with your family during this dark hour. Be safe, be strong!

I... I honestly dont know what to say that can help at all here... Im sorry...

Truely a heart-wrenching read... You have my deepest condolences...... Sorry that I cant help any more than that......

I hope Hari recovers quickly. Being completely fine and then losing a limb in a tragedy like this has to really take a toll on someone. My prayers are with him and also your sister for the loss of her babies.

I'm so goddamn upset now. I live in Rancho, if I see a car like that today I'll call the police.

This is horrible Poor doggies. I hope they catch the driver soon.

OMG, that is horrible. I hope they catch the irresponsible idiot driver.
My prayers and best wishes go out to you, your sister, and her boyfriend.

Hugs to you and your family. What a waste, so preventable and stupid. But really glad the humans both lived, most of the endings to a story like that... no one wants to even think about. So sorry.

I'm truly sorry for what happened. :( My prayers are with you all and I hope all of you can get through this together.

I wish for the best for you and your family. I'm really sorry to hear about your dogs, and I hope that everyone heals from this. I'm especially sorry to hear about your sister's baby... I know what it's like, I really do.

Give them all hugs for me when you can?

Oh god. *heart drops* I hope they find the driver... My heart and prayers go out to your family and Hari's, This is just devastating... I've been there >.<

Five years ago on Father's Day my family went through something similar. A driver went off the road and plowed into my brother and a coworker who had been aiding a stranded motorist as part of their job duties. Neither was supposed to work that day, and had volunteered because more hands were needed on the summer beach route. The coworker's wife and son were home preparing Father's Day dinner for him, and my fiance and I were visiting with my parents when it happened. The coworker took the brunt of the hit, and died instantly. My brother was left with hardly an intact bone in his body, and had to be airlifted out.

We didn't hear about the accident until many hours later - the state job and police had failed to follow through and call us - and only found out with the heart-shattering call from my cousin to my mom saying "don't worry, [your son] isn't the one that died." We spent days, weeks maybe, in an utter fog, denial, shock, it was awful. My brother's survival was an utter miracle, and his recovery went better than anyone could have dreamed of. Even at the worst of it, I had it in my head that he was too stubborn to die. The real impact came months later after he was home and recovering, that I could have lost him >.< It still shakes me up to think about it today.

I know you don't really know me aside from being a fan and lurker, but if you ever need to vent or rage or just sit and go omg about this... I've been in every one of those places and can be a shoulder for you should you want to avail yourself of it.

Much love and hugs and prayers from me and mine to you and yours.

Oh gosh this is absolutely horrible. I'm so sorry. :( Sending good thoughts and lots of hugs your way.

I'll be thinking of you, your family and the dogs all day today. *hugs* what a tragedy. I'm so glad your sister and her BF are going to pull through.

Jesus that is just horrible. I'm so sorry. Thoughts and wishes are with them and you.

There's a special place in Hell for people like that hit and runner. I really hope the police find him and he gets what's coming to him for what he did. It's horrible. I lost a good friend of mine to a drunk driver some years ago.

My thoughts are out to you and your sister and her boyfriend. He's a really awesome guy, saving his girlfriend like that, and here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

I'm just in shock at the fact that someone could just do what they did without bothering to stop and go back to make sure they didn't kill someone, animal or human. Its very saddening to hear of the lost of dear loved ones such as pets, but all that can be thought of now is that thankfully your sister and her boyfriend are alive. It could've been worse, which may be cliche to say, but it is true. My prayers are with your family, your sister and her boyfriend. Hopefully once this tragedy is over, the healing of the loss of the pets can begin. As terrible as this may sound, pets can be replaced, but human lives can't.

I hope that all those involved will stay strong through all that's happened

I don't have much to say. I don't know what to say in these kinds of situations. But I feel for people, even people I've never met. I've shed a number of tears while reading/watching the news reports. I just... cannot believe. And I was out walking my dog on the same night as this. It's all so horrible.

I am sorry sorry, I hope they caught them and I hope everything is alright with your sis.

That makes me want to cry... I am so sorry to hear the update about Hari. He is so brave, wow.

My heart goes out to you and your sister's situation. I have shared this on FB and hopefully someone out there can track this bastard down. They must have been going very fast to have killed all 4 dogs. May they rest in peace...my wishes to your family that this gets better...I am so sorry.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. Here's hoping they're able to catch up to the driver.

i send my blessings.... and CHP better hope they find that driver before I do....if i get to him first, they wont have any parts left...

My heart goes out to you during this tragic situation. I spread the word on FA. I hope your sister and boyfriend are stable and are being well cared for. I hope the guilty party is caught soon. Your will be in this felines prayers. *solemn mew*

It sickens me how these things just happen.. I'm honestly speechless, but all I can say is that I sincerely hope your sister, her true hero of a boyfriend, the dogs, and you, along with the family, all heal very quickly from everything and that the poor excuse of a human being gets brought to justice faster than he can say 'oops'.

All of you guys are in my thoughts, and I really hope you all recover quickly <33

My prayers go to you and your family.

It really sickens me how someone can be so cowardly as to drive off after this and leave someone laying there because of their actions. I hope they find this person and ruin their life in return.

It's really hard to find words for how tragic this is, I hope the best for you guys.

This is absolutely shocking, the worst of all nightmares. I wish you all the best, especially her amazingly heroic boyfriend. It's lovely to see that true bravery and love still exists. You're all in my thoughts and I wish you all the speediest recovery. <3

This is a terrible but heroic. I am glad that everyone is still alive.

Be well all of you. That required a tremendous amount of courage. Bravery to be spoken of.

I am terribly sorry about what has happened. I am sorry.

I really hope your sister and her boyfriend fully recover....I'm horribly sorry to hear about the dogs. The whole thing is really tragic. My hopes and prayers to you, if you ever need to just vent in private or have someone to talk to, I am always happy to help. I know we don't know eachother, but I hate for people to be sad. :(

What can you honestly say after reading a journal like this...It's absoulutly devastating to read yet alone comprehend the suffering and pain behind it all, the loss, the hurt, the scars. Glad to at least hear your sister and boyfriend will recover however I am sorry for the loss of your beloved dogs. Nothing I say or do will truly make you feel better, but know that the whole FA Community is here and backing you. We're all here for you.

Let this be a lesson to learn that none of this should be taken for granted. I am sorry for your loss.

I am so, so sorry...im not sure what i can say that will do any good. this is a sickening situation and one that should never happen to anyone....with all my heart i am sorry for all of your losses and may all my hopes and prayers reach you

How are they doing, Beastcub? I hope the surgeries went ok *hugs*

Was trying not to cry as I watched the news reports. I'm so sorry! My prayers are with your loved ones! I hope everything is calming down for you now. <3

OMG I hope they catch the person who hit them. My thoughts with your and your family through this trying time.

I dont know you...but I honestly want to say I am sorry that you are experiencing something like this - i honestly couldnt imagine. I was brought to tears by this journal. I will definitely be praying for you and your family as im sure the days, weeks, months ahead are going to be rough.

Any updates? going crazy here re-freshing the post every hour or so..and god the news reports made me cry, really hope you're holding up ok, or well..as ok as possible.

Words are never enough to convey my reaction to hearing this... My thoughts are with you! You are never alone!!

This brought me to tears... for so much tragedy to happen at once... no one can probably imagine the pain you and your family must be in... I wish your sister and her boyfriend a quick recovery, though I know the emotional damage will last a lifetime...

Oh, crap, I read about this on KCRA.com today! Christ, I'm sorry...but I'm glad your sister and her boyfriend will survive.

Sending whatever good thoughts I can your way.

Dear LORD I am sos orry to hear this....I heavily sympathize with the injuries and trauma all of you are facing, I've had a pretty bad car accident expirience mykself with my father :c
If there is anythign I can do, let me know.

Hang in there

I'm so so sorry to hear about this. The update on extent of their injuries was just awful, and the loss of all 4 of her dogs... especially when they are so cherished by her. Sigh. :(

I wish the your sister and her boyfriend a speedy recovery, both physically and mentally. It is very unfortunate that her boyfriend's injury caused him to lose his leg, and he did such a courageous act to save your sister from further injury. I also wish you that you, your family and your sister's loved ones have the strength to stay strong to help both of them. *hugs*

We all wish we could have rolled back time to avert this disaster as you mentioned; could have just made that alternate decision in another timeline to change things but... sigh, there are just limits to what we can do and there is no use beating yourself over it. :/

And I really hope they catch the person responsible for this incident for his utterly reprehensible cowardly behavior. It would not heal both their injuries, but it may help bring some closure.

My Sincere condolences, Thank god your sister and boyfriend are fine. However, the lost of their family members (dogs) is just as painful , having worked with animals has brought me to realise the importance to look out for each other. Cause there will be a day that they will come to save YOUR life too. To the driver that ran away, Im sure karma will get to him very soon. So sorry that this has happen.

Some people don't understand how pets can mean so much to someone, but they do. To a lot of people, they are not just 'pets' they are people, they are our family, and their lives are just as important as any human could ever be. I can understand what you are going through, having lost the same with pet family before to similar things. They are watching you from heaven, and think of them as they what they would want. They are still there with you, even you can't see them, for they never truly leave.

Oh my god! Im so sorry to hear for the loss of your animals and the injuries your sis and her brave boyfriend suffered. I hope everyone can make a speedy recovery physically and mentally. I can completely understand the loss of emotion at first its a major shock to anyone. I was the same in hearing my Father pass recently it really hits when you sit down and think about it T.T
I wish you all luck, sorry I dont have more to say but wanted you to know my heart hurts for your loss too. *hugs*

That man NEEDS to be called a hero for his demonstration of of selfless service and personal courage, putting her life above his own. He doesn't need to be showered in it, but he needs to know he did the right thing, and he went above and beyond his obligations to save her life at almost the cost of his own. They're both alive, and they're both going to need each other and their family more then ever now. I'm sorry about the dogs though, it's sad when the truly innocent have to pay the ultimate price of other's stupidity.

SHiT......*hugs*

at this point words fail me completely dude :(

fucking beyond best wishes for you and family. i know full well how much trauma this incident has caused you all, stable or not. you guys keep eachother going and support one another as best ya can throguh the trouble this is going to bring you all. well wishes and recovery aren't enough, but it's a start. pass along the condolances for the lost pooches (when i read how bad it ended for them i broke down myself having lost own pets in similar ways before...really heartfelt pain for them there.)

Oh, god. I hope they catch the driver and give him 20 years minimum!
Is elden going to be wheelchair bound or is he getting a prosthetic? (I know its early for this question, sorry)

I just can't imagine what kind of person does that. I hope they see the news and hate themselves till the end of their days.
Sorry, this is a place for condolences not anger.

his pelvis is really bad off....

I just.. wow. I'm so sorry. I can't fathom this situation. I don't know you all personally but it's like I know you anyway, because of seeing everyone online and whatnot. It's like, I KNEW those dogs. And they're just gone. I'm so sorry for your losses, and I hope that your sister and her BF recover swiftly. That man is a hero for what he did for her.

Keeping you guys in my thoughts. I hope Harri is okay especially, I'd hate for your sis to lose him. :(
