Today one of her girlfriends went for a ride with her boyfriend in his car. He is not the best driver to say the least. Anyhow he lost control of the car and crashed. Dd's friend did not survive the crash, she had a broken neck, and died waiting for a helicopter to take her to the city hospital. The boy has some scrapes and bruising but is ok.
DD found out that she had an accident about half an hour after it happened and then later heard she was injured but after school she found out that she did not make it. Britt is not handling this very well. She is on her way to spend time with me at work.
Anyhow think I will let Britt stayhome tomorrow as she is not going to be much good at school. I am sure not many of the friends will be ther either.
Oh how I wish I could take the pain away from her, and how sad I feel for her parents.
Hugs,

Ah thanks Jan... will be a tough time for the kids and this girls parents I am sure!
Oh I know how it is to be a parent and helping your child deal with tramma.
I wish Holly were here.She'd most likely have some kind words to share with Britt.There is so much emotional caos I call it that my Holly closed down.Spent her time in her room.never really spoke unless spoken to.She turned into an intorvert.It was so sad.I knew she had to talk this out to get beyond the horror.She had to do it in her own time.Best thing to do is Just be there with your arms and your ear.
See my baby was in a horrible car acciedent at age 10.EVERYONE got injured badly.And one girl lost her life BUT my Holly.she just had cuts from glass shards.Her gaurdian angel was definately watching over my daughter.
Love doreen
Doreen,
What Holly went threw may be a bit different set of circumstances then what Britt is going threw.I feel the pain is still the same.It changed my daughter.She's still not big on sharing her feelings.She has started sharing more of her as the year goes by.I like that she feels comfortable to share with me.
She spent so much time in her room and not speaking.That we got her a cockatoo.That actually could talk.My sound weird.But we felt she could talk her troubles an emotions to the bird.It worked.She started coming out bit by bit.
"I" wanted her to see a counsoler.But her father said no she's ok.He figured since she wasnt bawling that she was ok.BULL
I told her if she wanted to she COULD see a counsloer at school.And she did.bless her heart.I wont share with you WHAT my daughter saw.But it would have trammatized an adult .it was bad.
Ask Britt if she needs or wants to talk with a counsoler.
Britt is going to see the councellor tomorrow she said.
