Canada's deadliest attack. At the time that I write this, 22 confirmed deceased victims. It is unfathomable, shocking, heartbreaking.
No poetic words, pretty bouquets of flowers, or somber candlelight vigils can make any of this better. It doesn't make sense. It never will. Death doesn't.
And in in the context of the current pandemic, the complicated grief continues to complicate. Death rituals changed, altered or foregone altogether. It's not fair. Death isn't.
And though it will not help ease any of the pain, my heart is with the families and loved ones of each of the victims. May they find peace and solace.
