In your charity and mercy, please pray for the Adams family August 14, 2010

My second oldest daughter plays a great deal of soccer.  She used to play with a very good little 9 y/o goalie.  Her last name was Adams.  We knew this family, if not really well, probably a bit more than acquaintances.  The tragedy that has befallen this family is heart-stomping:

2 year old Carson Adams became at least the ninth child in Texas to die this year in a manner that shows no signs of stopping. At least 33 children nationwide have died in hot cars this year, tying last year’s total.

This has hit me like a 2×12, and I didn’t know little Carson too well.  I cannot fathom what her family must be going through.  Please pray that the anguish of their bereavement may be assuaged by God’s mercy and forgiveness.  I don’t have much else to say, other than that many people praying for them must surely aid them in this unthinkable time.  I am so very very very sorry.

St. Maximillian Kolbe, pray for us all.  Our Lady of Dolours, pray for us.  Jesus, save us.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
