Ok....so where do I start. It's another bad day for me. I'm at work with no makeup on but I really don't care. My work has been great through this whole disaster.
The driver of the car 31 yrs. old is being released from the hospital today. I prayed to God this morning to please give me strength. I don't think it's fair that he gets to go home and my daughter will never have that chance. I found out from the police officer that Tabitha was not drinking, and had no drugs in her system.(She was a good kid, just a free spirit!). They air lifted the driver and the front seat passenger to another state. So we are at the mercy of that state to get the Toxicology report. No charges can be filed until we have that. The police officer is trying to do an interview with the passenger first and then with the driver. He says it's better that way. He also says that it has to be video taped by law. I talked to the District Attorney. He said that he would be charged but they don't know with what yet until they get the toxicology report. I told him that I wanted to be in the court room every time that he has to go. (I live 5 hours away) So it will need to be planned out. He said no problem. He would make sure that I was there even if he had to fly me his self. Made me feel a little better. I have two lawyers that are working together. They are handling the insurance stuff for me. They are also going to go after the driver of the car that hit Tabitha even though it wasn't their fought. The driver was drinking and the lawyer seems to think that if he hadn't been drinking, he could have advoided the accident. Posted on 05/16/08, 09:05 am |

After 10 accidents with my husband driving, and 5 with my son, i can't imagine how i would have coped had someone lost their life. Strangely, my son, who always has to go, and drinks, did not go the night the boys were drinking and fooling around in a truck only to have the one boy, who drank, but responsibly, and had a wonderful future ahead of him, ended up dying. I can't begin to imagine your grief. Words escape me, but i hold you and yours in light and love, PJ

First let me say I am sorry for your loss. I can understand your frustration on the toxicology report. My sons and I were in a bad accident 2/21. We survived but have been waiting to find out if the man who hit us had drugs in his system. we were told it could take 16 wks. It has been 12 and we still don't know. I hope you can get an answer soon.
