About Me:: Married, I will always be a mother of 4 (3 here on earth, 1 in Heaven). I hate it when people ask me if I'm getting over it...did I have the flu. I dread it when our oldest daughter (18) drives at night. She and Kyle shared the same birthday, just different years. I'm afraid our youngest two (8 and 5 years old) will not remember him. Emma's 8th brithday was 4 days after the accident.

About my Loss:: I lost my son Kyle in a car accident on Oct 20, 2009. He was 21 years old. His accident was called in at 2:39 am, I woke up in a sweat at 2:36 am and told my husband that something was wrong. The police called us at 6:40 am and said there had been an accident and they needed to come talk to us. Kyle went off the road, hit two trees, was ejected and his car burst into flames. It tears me apart to think that he might have suffered, the medical examiner thinks he died suddenly but they can't say for sure. They didn't even know where he was until the fire was put out. What I would give to tell him "I love you" one last time.

Once I was driving and became completely aware of my grandfather-- even the car in front of me had his initials in the tags! Anyway I got the call later that evening that that he'd passed away. His wife was the same way, she KNEW when my bro broke his leg down the street-- before he told momma. Anyway, I think you were with your oldest at the time he needed you. He woke you when with his last breath-- what a blessing to have such a close relationship with your lved ones.
