I certainly do http://oi48.tinypic.com/2vv2ywj.jpg
As a parent, my heart goes out to them.
I'm also not certain why the speculation that he was permitted to ride along or cross 320. He wasn't. He is anxious to see his friends. When he is able to see them, I'm certain that information will be available to you. For now, he is being surrounded with love by his family and close friends of the family. If you would like to help the family or send good wishes, I'm certain that any of the schools will make sure that they are forwarded to them. Please keep Allen and his family in your prayers as well as the individual who hit him. Thoughts are with you as well.
