BrightSide and I were driving home from a family vacation last week.  We stopped for sandwiches close to home, and it was during this last leg of the trip that we stumbled onto a story on NPR.

The ride from Subway to our house is only about 10 minutes, but I was absolutely riveted by this story.  I found myself shushing the kids in the backseat.

I’m listening.  I need to hear this, I said.

Though what I was hearing made me cry.
