Thank you so much, readers, for your kind well wishes, tweets, and comments – I am ok and so are my friends, but heartbroken and saddened by what happened in my city yesterday afternoon. It’s so easy to focus on the negative during times like these, but my hopes are lifted by seeing the outpouring of help and goodwill in my community. Boston is a tough city.

If you’re looking for somewhere to donate, Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and MA Gov. Deval Patrick created One Fund Boston to help affected citizens and their families.
So glad you are well and your readers have been so supportive. I have recently moved to New York from MA and when I heard about the bombings I was on the phone to my friends who run in the marathon right away! Luckily they answered and had decided not to run this year. It was such a relief. My heart fell when I heard the news…I was heartbroken for Boston…
Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you're OK. What a horrible situation… you guys are in my thoughts and prayers.
