saw in the front page of the sun that the little boy that i was really upset about in the russian school siege is alive and well.didn't think that he would have made it out but he did.he was the little boy who was seen in the video with his hands on his head as the terrorist next to him had his foot on the detonater to a bomb.i thought he stood no chance as he was so near to him.but miracles do happen and he made it out.still have sadness for the children who's lives were cut short by this evil act.god rest their soulsxxxx

There are definately miracles, that's the third I remember happening in this type of thing. There was a photo in the paper of a girl in Hillsboro when all the football fans were crushed. She was right against the wire fence with goodness knows how many people behind pushing into her. They found her after ok. Also that fireman at 9/11 they too the photo of him going up just before the building went. He was ok too. I think his name was something like Mike Kehoe. Diane

it is a sad time and ashocking time for us all not just in russia as the innocence of children can be undermined in all sorts of ways.the saddest thing for me is that those children had little time on this earthto know what life was going to be like.to get married have children,have their first drink.to grow old and have grandchildren all that was taken away by terrorism.we have to stop it as a nation and a world before it's too latex):

Lisa I missed this message earlier - I am so pleased that you put this on as I have been really worried about that little boy too. I didn't think he could possibly survive and feel really happyfor him and his family. Love Lorrainex
