I have an aquaintance that I do business with here who had the same thing happen to his daughter on Xmas Eve. It was pretty upsetting. They aren't religious so I can't say whether they got through the ordeal any easier, but they seem to have adjusted, at least in the public light.
I can't even imagine that happening in my family. I don't really know how I would react; or what would help me pull through it, if anything could.
