Today started off just like it typically does. Kids got up and off to school. I went back to nap, got up and made a trip to Sioux Falls to get back in time to pick them up from school. Came home and watched tv for a few hours. Now I'm blogging, tweeting, facebooking, and doing laundry.
I did receive an email back from Tanner's sister today. She was very thankful for my email and expressed how it lifted her spirits. In thinking about the family more and how heartbroken they were I thought there has to be something more I can do to help their healing. While watching ET (Entertainment Tonight) it came to me. They were talking about John Travolta and Kelly Preston's new baby. What do I have to lose by doing it? The answer...not a darn thing. So, I emailed Kelly Preston via her website and talked about this family who lost their son a short time ago. As you all know I'm sure, they lost their son Jett in January 2009 at 16. Tanner was 15, just 14 days from turning 16 when he died in the car accident. The Travolta's daughter was about the same age as Tanner's sister when he passed. I figured maybe a word from them on their healing process might help Tanner's family in their healing. I don't expect too much from it, but figured the situations are very similar, and since I really don't have anything to lose, why not at least try.
I guess I would say to stay tuned to see if anything happens.
Till next time!
