Very sad

Condolences to their families and colleagues. Hope they manage to get some closure when all the madness dies down.

I was on call yesterday when this story first broke. My first thought was that it is was a group of final years who had just finished their exams and were on their way home before graduation (UCD graduation is on Thursday).

Randomly, one of the girls worked in my place before Xmas, got to know her through call and general res banter.

Such a horrible story, thoughts with the girls, their families and friends. I hope the search can bring some results, and give some closure.

RIP

I am so sorry for their families, their friends and their classmates.

I actually can't believe this.

I got a horrible shock when I saw the headlines this morning; I had not heard anything about the crash yesterday.

I knew Eithne for three months when we were both exiled from Dublin hospitals "down the country." She was such a warm and fun loving girl. We had great craic for that short space of time.

Any death is a tragedy but the loss of someone so bright and so vibrant seems like such a waste.

My thoughts are with her family and the other families affected by this disaster.

I think I'd forgotten how small the medical community in Ireland is. Sorry for all you guys, too. Did they all work together? It'll be a big shock to their individual departments if they didn't,but absoloutely horrific if they were all in the same place. I don't mean that in terms of service delivery, btw.

Hope the medical community can give their family some comfort through all of this.

I simply dont know what To say. As a former A.T.C.O and employee of Aer-Lingus, any plane crash is always something I care about but hearing of people who are so close being affected directly really makes it hit home. Condolences to all of the affected families, friends and work colleagues. I am praying for them as I write this.

My sincerest condolences to the families concerned. I was lucky to have been acquainted with one of the girls through her boyfriend and she was a genuinely lovely girl. Its hard to know what to say in a situation like this, only pray and be there for him and everyone involved in any way possible.

It seems that an unusually severe storm may have caused the plane to crash. Here is a detailed weather map of the time around the event.

just too sad for words, those ladies were so very accomplished people indeed. the world is a worse off place without them and of course all of the others who perished.

may they all rest in peace and their families take comfort from knowing the world at large has them in their thoughts and prayers.

Its very very very sad stuff. The girls worked hard at their leaving cert, got 600 points or thereabouts, got through med school and were living their dreams... such a shame to see them die like that. They didn't deserve it, they really didn't. They had so much to live for and so much to give. I really feel bad for the families who have the torture of trying to relive what their daughters final moments were. Horrific, and so totally unfair. Cruel world this. I just hope their bodies get found... it would be the most unfair thing in the world if their families had to live the rest of their lives knowing their daughters bodies were somewhere in the Atlantic.

I work with Eithne's brother. Dont know the guy very well nor did I know Eithne or either of the other 2 young woman. I can only imagine how their family and friends are feeling at this most horrific time and under such circumstances. I just pray that the 3 girls, and of course everyone else that was on that flight are at peace.
