    Gosh this is sad news! Lots of prayers for the people who were killed in this terrible accident, and I hope those who are injured recover and heal quickly! Aameen! And for the family and friends of the injured and the killed people, may God give them enough patience and strength to go through this hard and sad time.

    What a tragedy! It was on our local news this morning and from the film clip it looked horrible. My prayers are with the victims of the crash and also for the wonderful people of Belgium as you try to deal with this, Lut.

    My thoughts and deepest sympathy goes to the families and friends of these children.

    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh, how terrible!

    Somehow, I'd missed this news. Adding our prayers for swift healing of the injured and peace to those mourning.

    I feel so sorry for all those parents who even do not know yet if their own kid survived or not....! This must be so hard for them

    All we can do for them now is pray............

    It is so weird.....! The driver was not tired, since he was only 1 hour on the road, the bus was brand new, he wasn't speeding at all....
    Nobody understands...........
    It is such a tragedy, even for the kids who survived this! All the adults in that bus were killed, and some of the kids were stuck up to 1 hour before they were found. In the meanwhile, they have seen their teacher and their friends so badly hurt, they have seen them die A few kids are still fighting for their lives...
    I wonder if they will ever get over this.......


    The whole country is in deep shock....! After all Belgium is just a very small country..... (=size of Maryland)
