        I agree with you and thought the same at first. Upon deeper thought I realized it’s this image so many can relate to. The pain she felt from losing her dad was crushing and people couldn’t only see that, but feel it and understand.

        Just put yourself in her shoes though, would you want a picture of yourself sobbing over your dads coffin getting posted all over the internet?

        No. But as a public figure of a high-powered politician I’d know the events are photographed and that is a possibility.

        Leave the poor girl alone. She lost her Daddy....her first love!!! Let her grieve without judgement. When my dad died I sat in a bathtub crying for days. @MeghanMcCain we all grieve with you, take care of yourself and CRY and SHAKE as much as you need.

        I believe the daughter/daddy relationship, for most not all, is rooted deeply within the daughter's soul, including those of us that lost our daddy when we were older than Meghan. I personally believe it's palpable.

        Please leave her alone. She just lost her beloved father. I don't want to be photographed when I lose my father. I've lost my mother and I looked like this.

        The bond of a daughter with her Father can feel insurmountable, yet God at that time has greater plans. I feel for Megahan McCain as I too was in the depth of emptiness some 11 years ago when my Father passed. Time helps and allow yourself to perhaps not heal fast but feel peace.
