THIS IS WHY WE DON'T DRINK & DRIVE!

There's nothing more difficult than bringing through children that have passed to talk to their parents.

I was volunteering my services at one of the churches, and two weeks in a row I had parents come to see me that had lost teen age children in car accidents. The first one was a young girl about 17, that was in the back seat of a car being driven by someone that was impaired. She knew she shouldn't have gotten in the car, and although her parents always told her to call then is she needed a ride,she didn't. She came through very upset, and thought her parents were angry with her for getting into the car with a drunk driver, against their teachings. The parents couldn't believe she thought they would be mad at her, they loved her so much, they were just stuck in grief due to missing her!

She did let them know that it was very quick, she actually jumped out of her body upon impact. She didn't suffer. That's what every parent wants to know when they lose a child. She was relieved on the other side, to know that they weren't blaming her, even though she knew it was her own fault for getting in the car,  As difficult as it was, they were all able to get closure.

The next week the Aunt of one of the other teenagers in the same car accident came to see me. She had no idea that the other parents had come to see me. Her niece was also a passenger in the car, it had hit a tree. There were four teenagers in the car at the time,  and they all perished. She was hanging for the most part with the girl I had talked to the previous week. The woman  actually came to see me more for the girls mother, since she was having a difficult time with her passing, and felt that she was still in the home. We were able to confirm that she was in fact spending all of her time with her grieving mother still in the house, and had been trying to make her presence known. I was able to give her information that hopefully will let them move on, and allow her to heal on the other side as well.

During this Holiday Season, it's my hope that we all remember that our actions effect many people.
Please be safe on the roads, Don't drink and drive, and don't get in a car with an impaired driver.
