Asking for prayers: multiple nursing students died in car accident

Published

Today has been a very devastating day. Early this morning on the way to clinical some of my fellow nursing classmates were killed in a car crash. There was an 7-8 car pile up, but only the nursing students were killed. There were 7 students all together, 5 killed, 2 critically injured. This deeply saddens me because this was their first semester in the program. It was also their last clinical of the semester. I do not know the 5 students personally but it hits so close to home. My nursing school is very small and we are all like family.

I am posting this to ask for condolences and prayers for the families of these students. Please do not hesitate to post. We would all appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

Sending my condolences to all involved.

Incredibly sad. Prayers for the wounded students.
