I hope everyone is okay...it doesn't look like it, but I hope the injured aren't bad...:frown:

My thoughts and prayers go out to the injured.

    I'm just watching it on CNN, 2 explosions near the finish line. At least 6 injured, prayers for them.

    That's awful! It says at least 19 hurt near finish line. They are worried that there will be more explosions...I pray that doesn't happen! They just reported that there are two people dead.

    I'm following as well. They're saying there is a bomb now inside a hotel and PA Ave has been shut down. 2 bombs went off at the finish line and there was a police controlled explosion.
    22 injured and 2 dead

    so so sad. I hope they find who did this.

    Major tragedy. Sending prayers up, we could use all the support we need whatever thread this gets posted in. I'm guessing there are some from MFP there and it would be nice to have a supportive community for them to go to.
