wanted to share this email from my sil, yes, we can make a difference

Published Nov. 19, 2008

 Went to a party Mom

(read all the way to the bottom and sign your name)

I went to a party,
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
so I had a sprite instead.
    
I felt proud of myself,
The way you said I would,
that I didn't drink and drive,
though some friends said I should.

I made a healthy choice,
And your advice to me was right.
The party finally ended,
and the kids drove out of sight.

I got into my car,
Sure to get home in one piece.
I never knew what was coming, Mom,
something I expected least.

Now I'm lying on the pavement,
And I hear the policeman say,
the kid that caused this wreck was drunk,
Mom, his voice seems far away.

M y own blood's all around me,
As I try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say,
this girl is going to die.

I'm sure the guy had no idea,
While he was flying high.
Because he chose to drink and drive,
now I would have to die.

So why do people do it, Mom
Knowing that it ruins lives?
And now the pain is cutting me,
like a hundred stabbing knives.

Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom
Tell daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven,
put ' Mommy's Girl' on my grave.

Someone should have taught him,
That it's wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents had,
I'd still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter,
Mom I'm getting really scared
These are my final moments,
and I'm so unprepared.

I wish that you could hold me Mom,
As I lie here and die.
I wish that I could say, 'I love you,Mom!'
So I love you and good-bye.

I have read and signed this years ago...it is still so sad

The innocent ones always suffer the most...

Godschild, You are very welcome...

Thnk you for sharing.

"Drunk driving is as inexcusable as beating/hurting a child. There is ALWAYS another option!" familyfour

I totally, agree...such senseless acts...*sigh*

Thanks, Smorg...(((((huggs)))))

If you check Snopes, annette, you'll see the poem is legit (and maybe even its origins in a MADD publication), but the petition isn't.

But no harm in signing on and letting others know how you feel about this issue. :-)

It is a wonderful message to pass along...such a sad peom...

Drunk driving is as inexcusable as beating/hurting a child. There is ALWAYS another option!

Smorg, We have 2800, signatures...I hope its Legit :)

Thanks..GB,...

Nice, poem, if a bit morbid. As for the petition aspect, have you checked its veracity on Snopes.com?
