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.
I did hear about this and it has been weighing heavy on my heart ever since. This could have been me, or anybody. I just hate to see lives lost of people who have so much promise in their future. I send my prayers to the family, friends and classmates of each of these special individuals. I wish that I could say more or do more. I am sure that there are people in their community who will forever be touched by their lives.
As a dual graduate of GSU, my heart aches for my Eagle Nation family. Yes, we are a small, but strong community and through this tragedy, we will grow even stronger. I did not personally know my comrades, but pray for their peace in heaven. Once an eagle, always an eagle, and now those students have their wings.
