Heartbreaking

Could there be much more emotional swing than believing that your beloved family member was killed in a coal mining accident, then being told that they are miraculously alive, and then being told that they are, in fact, deceased? Or the reality that they wrote "last letters" to their family members before their passing?

I don't know why I'm so moved by the events in West Virginia these past few days, but I know that it breaks my heart to think about it.
