Orlando

Just wanted to say that I've been thinking about the the LE, fire, EMS, ED, and trauma peeps that have been inundated with pain and tragedy in the wake the horrible attack in Orlando. Much love and strength to all of them.

Thank you. That's where I work. It helps to know that the ED community has been supporting us.

You guys did an amazing job! When I heard how many patients you received, how many surgeries, how many lives you saved. Unbelievable. Prayers for you all as you deal with this horrible tragedy!

Working mass casualties are surreal and can be traumatic; please take care of yourselves.

My heart hurts for my colleagues.

As an ally my heart hurts for the victims and families and friends

As an American, my heart hurts for all of us.

I'm a nurse now, but way back when, I worked at our county hospital as a health educator. The week I started, a building collapsed, crushing and killing over 100 people and injuring more than twice that many. It was all hands on deck and I was assigned to the area outside the ED greeting families and directing them to a waiting area where the Red Cross was set up to give information. I played a tiny part in providing comfort and information to people who needed both. It was something I will never forget. It's the reason I returned to health care after my children were grown up and I am now in nursing school. God bless you all for everything you do every day, and for being there in the trenches making a difference.

Oh my hon, please know that we are 100% thinking, praying and sending you huge amounts of love. I am a mom of a child that has gone there. 3 of his friends were killed. He is struggling so much, but in spite of it all, he praised all the first responders. His heart is grieving for his friends. For the small community where he finally found safety for which he no longer feels safe. His heart is grieving for all the hateful comments by some of our elected officials, the community at large for hate speach against those that frequented this club, and the LGBT community when they talk about hating all Muslims. He wants to find a way to tell everyone that this is not the answer.

You all did an amazing job on that horrible day. And from what I understand, there are still 6 in critical condition. I am sure that it will take much time to come to terms with this aweful action taken by one person...so much damage. Please be kind to one another and know that we are with you in thought. Come here if you need to. Thank you again.

I for one am so glad that there were people right there to comfort, heal and save lives....it is so hard thinking about the terror for these people. And so hard to think of my boy, my sweat loving son being lost in such a senseless way.

LockportRN, I am so glad your son is okay, but so sorry for his grief.
