I lost my 15 y/o daughter, Rachel, last July 5th to a car accident. She was my middle child and only girl. As an ER nurse, I knew it was serious when my dear friends from the ambulance service in my home town called to tell me to get to the hospital (where I work). I knew when they told me that the rescue truck was on scene that it was bad. The site was sort of on the way to the hospital and I had to see it before I could go to the hospital. When I saw the windshield I knew it was fatal. See, I am a nurse...it was when I got to the ER that I lost the nurse and reality hit hard. All my friends and co-workers could hardly be around me..I know that they were grieving also. She was flown to Children's Hospital about an hour away. There, they allowed us to be in her room while they coded her. I could not take it anymore and I knew what the doctor meant when she told me the actual injury to Rachel's brain. I had to make the decision to let her go and it ripped my heart out. I don't think I can ever get to a happy place again..I try for my 2 son's and my husband (of 9 months now). I know what you mean about needing to talk about your daughter...so do I. Please feel free to email me any time. I will listen to you and you can listen to me. I really need someone that understands. Thank you...LaDonna
