4 MP miles by myself (needed to be alone with my thoughts). Felt way too hard. I don't know who will read this but the last couple of days (and presently, writing as if I were writing the day of this entry) have been really hard for me. If you are familiar with southern Utah you may know that Hurricane, Utah (where I work) is in close proximity to Hilldale and Colorado City, where the recent flooding resulted in the death of 3 women and 9 children in the FLDS community. I'm sure everyone has their own opinions regarding that community. Although I do not agree with their religious beliefs I do love many of the women in that community with whom I have formed strong bonds. The clinic I am at is one of the closest medical facilities to that community and I have "polygamous" patients daily. My heart hurts so badly right now. I was certainly dehydrated when I ran this morning, but also, my heart just wasn't in it.

Hey Teena, it was very tragic what happened to all the men, women and children down in that area.

It has been a tough several days for many around here.

Teena, if anyone can help them lift their spirits, I'm it is you. The compassion you have for them is wonderful. I hope their are many like you in the area that are willing to reach out and lend a hand during this time of tragedy.
