I am very glad to hear that your family is safe. There is and will be so much trauma . . . even for those who made it out alive or were very close to being on the bridge. While I am sure your family wants to make sure those they care about are safe and to help in whatever way they can, I hope they do not get too caught up in all this -- delayed trauma is quite possible. However, it really sounds like they are sensible and doing well . . . saying no to interviews and such was such a great thing for them to do, for a number of reasons.
