Two months ago our daughter was killed by a drunk Driver. She was 20 years old and engaged to be married. First came the Call that there had been a terrible Accident near our Home. The neighbors knew it was our daughter. Then the misery of waiting for the Rescue people to get her out of the car. Next the Long ride to the Hospital Only to be told when we got there that she was dead. Finally sitting in that sterile room with her broken lifeless body and trying to accept the fact that she was really gone. There was still that awful task of calling her Fiance Halfway around the world to Tell him that his soon to be Bride had been killed by a drunk Driver. Trying to decide what your child will Wear at her own funeral is a Nightmare. Did you make the right Choice was the music what she would have wanted there Are so Many things to be done see a lawyer about her life insurance. Close her checking account.

So How do you go on with your life you done to care if there is Ever another meal cooked another Load of laundry done or if the House is Ever cleaned again. You become the walking dead. You have no appetite and no interest in life but you go on because there is another child who needs you.

When will lawmakers make drunk Drivers pay for their crime Why do they get away with a Legal murder lawmakers need to enact stricter Laws and judges must get a lot tougher. Lets get lawmakers to attach a condition to Dpi fines that will make drunk Drivers spend a Day in a Hospital emergency room or better yet in a funeral Home to see the misery they cause. As Long As drunk Drivers Are not held responsible they will continue to kill innocent people and get away with it. What they spend on Beer and liquor in Only a few weeks could pay for their insurance. It should be mandatory in every state. The night the wreck happened our child lost her life but that drunk really killed a family of four.
