I meet the mother as well as the driver of the vehicle driven on Tuesday at the Brewton Medical Center. I talked to the mother who lost her son and explained to her to keep her head up and stay prayed up because I know what she is going through cause I also lost my child in 2005 the same way she lost hers. I told her it was three in the vehicle my daughter was killed in and she was the only one who didn’t survive. I also talked to the driver of the vehicle and told her please whatever she does to please keep in touch with the mother of the child that was killed in the car with her. Because as long as that mother gets a phone call every now and then and on birthday days or holidays send or take flowers out there to show your love that will make the mother feel so much better. To know it wasn’t my fault but I still care and will always care for the love of the child and his family.
Praying for the family. So tragic to lose a young life this way.
