It affects the lifes of everyone who knew her - and didn't know her. It has changed many lifes in this city and surrounding communities. Husbands and wifes have patched up relationships, people have began going to church and getting saved. Relationships have been healed. People have changed the way they look at life. People have become more vigilant around their families and friends. Yes, it has changed many lifes but most of all, mine. As a mother, the guilt piled up, then the anger, then the sadness, then the grief, now the longing and yearning for my daughter. 2 and one half years have passed but still I'm as hurt and empty inside today as I was the day it happened.
There were red flags all over the place but they were ignored mostly. We didn't want to believe that this could happen. but it did - and now we live with the "if only I had....." and the "what ifs...."
We can't go back. My only repast is knowing that my daughter is not in pain any longer and is not alone. She's in heaven with her brother and my dad and she is waiting for us to come one day to be with her again - what a joyous day that will be.
