Some Disturbing News...

Like many of my friends, my former housemate, Laura, is currently traveling abroad. She's on a fellowship that has already taken her to Mexico, Capetown and eventually somewhere in India I think. However, I just found out that she was recently stabbed while at a museum in Capetown. Luckily she's okay, but it was a very clos call. She was stabbed in the back of the neck and the knife just missed her lung. Sadly, this is not the first time she has been held at knife point; the last time she was able to pepper-spray the guy.
Please send good thoughts her way.
