A little bit less of me!

Sad...
I'm just trying to shake off the worst day I have had this year. I can't really even find the words to describe the emotion I feel right now, I'm still mostly numb. One of my boys came in this morning after enduring a punishment that no child should ever have to endure. The physical wounds turned my stomach to the point that I wanted to vomit. The emotional wounds he's suffering with will last a lifetime for him. I know that from his words, his tone, the matter of fact way he presented the details to the proper authorities. His life just changed today. I don't think I've shed this many tears for one of my kids, ever. I just don't understand. My heart is broken for him.

There are few jobs that can do this to a person. Teaching is one of them, and the kind of teaching you do is most certainly more challenging than we general ed teachers.
I'm sorry for your student, and I'm sorry for you.
((BIG HUGS))
I'm so sorry. Please know that you and your student will be in my prayers tonight and in the days to come.
your student is in my prayers tonight as our you. Sometimes all we can do is be there and it sounds like you were there for him in a big way!

Oh honey I'm SO sorry... I can't imagine what it's like to go through some of the stuff that is "normal" in your room, but this? Heartbreaking... I'm thinking about you and sending you and him all my positive thoughts... Hugs to you and for him, too...
That sounds awful. I'm really sorry to hear this. Thinking of you both.
I'm so sorry to read this. NO child should have to endure this pain. Sending thoughts and prayers to you, your student, and your class.
I am so sorry K. You are in my prayers as is your student. Let him know he is loved by a perfect stranger and I'm sending him big cyber hugs.
Hugs...
Oh no. You both are in my thoughts and prayers. I know you are a bright spot on his life and others. Keep shining, my friend.
My heart just broke for your boy today as well. You have so much going on in your class, it takes exactly who you are to endure it. Sending love and hugs.
Your student is sooooo lucky to have you on his side ... it is just heart breaking! You are one exceptional person Kristen ... to walk beside him on this journey! Don't kid yourself ... not all teachers would be willing to do that!
