I thought most people had moved on from that meaningless sentiment.

Tuesday “started as any other” for Tumbler Ridge, B.C, mom Cia Edmonds, but within hours she was sitting in the Vancouver children’s hospital with her 12-year-old daughter, Maya, “fighting for her life” due to gunshot injuries to her head and neck.
The little girl was one of many people injured in a mass shooting that left six people dead at a Tumbler Ridge high school on Tuesday, as well as the shooter. Two more people were found dead at a separate location. Another person died en route to the hospital. Two people were airlifted to hospital with serious or life-threatening injuries and another 25 were assessed at a local medical centre for non-life-threatening injuries.
Maya Edmonds “was a lucky one, I suppose,” her mother posted on Facebook.
“Condolences to the other families during this tragedy. This doesn’t even feel real. I never thought I would be asking for prayers. But please, pray for my baby.”

You know, if someone take a bit of comfort in asking for thoughts and prayers for their 12 year old daughter fighting for her life, it’s not too much to set aside your personal beliefs and let them have that.
