I’ve been reading Leticia Keighley’s stories about raising a child with Down’s Syndrome. She’s a naturally gifted writer who draws you in with her candour and strong feeling. This post had me very tearful within minutes.. a real heart-stopper. Have a read and tell me you’re not affected.

In the Blink of an Eye, via Embracing Wade.

Roads were full of trauma on my way home tonight.

Gilbert Rd., Thornbury.

i shouldn’t have looked, but i saw a car sandwiched between 2 big trams.

Scrunched up to about half its length.

Ugh.

Police cars everywhere, paramedics, the fire brigade.

Here is my artist’s impression of the event.
