If you read nothing else today, be sure to read this New York Times story on the medical response to the Tucson shootings. It is a tremendous piece of on-the-ground journalism, informative, exhilarating and heart-breaking.

    It is an excellent story.

    At msnbc.com, we add details on the timeline of first responders:

    The horridness of this event is beyond words but not emotions.

    Christina Green is a HERO, but to her parents she was always a hero! Organ donation is a wonderful thing! It saves many lives! On September 11, 1999, my grandmother passed away of old age. On September 11, 2001, many lives ended, but on that same day, a HERO was born!

    Miracles happen all the time. Some are recognizable by people, some aren’t…..but they DO happen never-the-less! I would like to share a miracle that happened to my family over a year ago. I am not posting this to brag. I’m posting this to let people know that there IS a G-d! That He performs miracles all the time. These are 2 YouTube.com links. IT IS NEITHER SPAM NOR is it a VIRUS! Nobody is obligated to click this. It is your choice! Feel free to click if you like.
