April 27, 2013Philly Burb Mom Janeane and twins involved in Hit and Run. F150 Truck still at large.
April 26, 2013Many of you have heard that a Mother (Janeane) and her twins were struck by a hit-and-run driver while crossing the street on foot in Radnor yesterday. The Mother is part of a Social Media Network that I (Sarah) belong to. This is what she posted last night…
Thank you to all of your for your kindness and generosity. The little twin is sore but got sent home from the hospital. The big twin was sent by helicopter to Dupont Hospital in Delaware. She is sedated and we are waiting to see if she wakes up and responds before dealing with the fractures. It is a terrible thing to see your child hit so hard she is knocked out of her shoes. Please know we appreciate all your kindness and help.
There are several efforts hosted by friends of Janeane to help provide for her family during this difficult time. If you would like to contribute, here are a few options:

If you have a Facebook or Twitter account, please update your status to read:

Finally, whether or not you’re in the position to help financially, please send prayers and positive thoughts to Janeane and her family, and let’s hope the driver of that truck is brought to justice.

Coping with Tragedy by Shelby Riley, LMFT
December 20, 2012- Turn off your TV and stop checking FB and Twitter and your News App. The constant barrage of information by the media is overwhelming and unhealthy for us. It is re-traumatizing. Check once a day to see if there is new information. Read the memorials of the children and staff on your news feed once a day. Allow yourself to honor the people involved in the tragedy, but give yourself breathing room to comfort yourself and protect yourself from too much information.
- Enjoy the new perspective you have about your family and friends, but don’t expect yourself to feel that gratitude 24/7 for the rest of your life. You are human, and you have a range of feelings. Your kids need to know you love them and cherish them, and they also need to know it is okay for them to move through the world, taking risks and making mistakes. They need love, and they need discipline. For one family, it may be a healthy response to walk your first grader to the bus stop one driveway away because you want to cherish the time with her. For another family, that may create more anxiety and not allow the child to figure out how to cope with her separation anxiety and build a sense of autonomy. Know which family you are and give your kids what they need.
- Acknowledge any fearful or difficult thoughts and feelings you may be having, take a moment to experience them and then soothe them, and ask yourself what other truth you need to hold onto. “I can’t stand sending my kids off to school—what if this happens to them?” can be held right next to, “the world is still a very safe place” and you can comfort yourself with a few statistics about how many children go off to school each day and come home safely. This does not dishonor the children who died last Friday. This reminds you of the reality of how safe your children are.
Ho.. Ho.. Healthy Holidays!
