re: Remembering Bethany And Her Family.

thank you, Bethany for watching out for me and Piper the other day!!!!

I can't belive that damn Escalade cut me off and almost made me slam into it w/my sweet baby Piper in teh back. I don't even want to think about what would have happened If I hadn't slammed on the breaks in time. My element isn't tiny but, it's a bug compaired that huge tank of a car!!! OMG I can't stop thinking about it but, I know you and your baby girls were with us.

Thank you sweet angels!!!!!!

I wish you were here on Gaga to offer me advice.
I looked up to you.

I wish I could see your reaction to my little fat girl.

I know you see her....and i know you are laughing at all us weirdos and dumpasses. i just wish i could read what you have to say.

I found that newspaper today.

I remember refusing to drive down that stretch of the interstate on my way back from TN, just days after your accident. I told my Uncle if I seen that exit, I'd lose it. So I took the long way back - an extra 2 hours, just so I could avoid it. I remember breaking down anyways, as soon as I got to that gas station and seen Vadie's picture staring up at me from the newspaper stand. Of course I'd stop in the town that asshole was from, without realizing it.

I don't even know why I bought that newspaper. Or why I'd save it. And apparently, I thought that the last time I found it too - or else it wouldn't have been thrown in the back of Lego's closet.

I miss you. I miss debating with you. I miss agreeing with you. I miss laughing at the things you say. I miss you tormenting me with talks of Pumpkin Donut Holes and Pumpkin drinks.

&I hate the fact that I didn't know just much I'd miss you until it was too late.

Not a day goes by I dont think about you. I broke down today. I wish I could see how big vadie is getting, and all her little milestones.

It still isn't real to me.

WOW! I just found this post, and it is so sad! It seems like you were truely loved by all, and it is such a tragedy what happend to you and your family!

I look at Piper's chubby cheeks and see Vadie. I wish they could have had a play date, I wish I could have replied to more of your hilarious posts. I'm sorry, I never got to know you. We may have only had a few posts before you had to go but, I still think about you all the time. That's just the kind of person you were.

I miss hearing you talk about your crazy sex life, you always had the best advice to keep your marriage alive. You were always giving me the sweetest comments when I was down and out. You are an amazing woman and I miss you terribly.

Bethany, You are the only reason why I am now so anal about having a DD.
There are times when I'm at the bar, drinking my diet coke & wishing like hell it wasn't my turn to be responsible.. I think of you guys.

You better know that you taught me a valuable lesson. & even though I get bitter when it's my turn to stay sober for my friends, all I have to do is think of you & your angels - and my diet coke tastes a little bit better and i'm no longer bitter.

Ugh! Where are you to keep these people in line? I really miss you!

Bethany... I wish I could see how big Vadie is and watch her grow into a beautiful little girl. I miss you, A LOT.

There was an elderly woman from Baltimore who just died here in Rochester- after driving 10 miled westbound in the eastbound lane of the thruway, a semi hit her crushing her car. Her family didnt even know what she was doing in WNY. Its a different situation - but it struck a cord with me.

It was 2 weeks ago that Kailyn and I went back to DC, for the first time since she was born- and since your accident. We wanted so badly to pay our respects and visit with you and the girls - but we had so much car trouble - getting stranded twice for a toptal of 4 days between DE ans MD (Alberdeen of all places, lol!). It helped to think that someone up there was causing us to break down to avoid some other tragedy that would have happened had we not stopped. So, we didnt get to Baltimore this time - but I thought about you guys and held back the tears as I drove down 295 passing the exit for Towson and passing the city of Baltimore. Wishing I could stop...

I too am always thinking about Vadie and her milestones - what would she look like now? What would she be doing now? I miss you.

I just read the myspace blog that the guy who did this to you was found guilty...Thank god that our justice system is somewhat functional. I hope you're smiling down on all of us right now. Thinking of you and your babies..our daughters are only 12 days apart.. I knew whenever you posted your belly pics that I wasn't much farther behind you. God bless you all...

This is the first time I've heard of this and it's just heartbreaking. I read the article, checked out the links, pictures and even though I never knew her I couldn't help but start crying. Especially when I saw pictures of baby Vadie. ..the picture of her carseat in the road  ..Everytime I see that one where Bethany is kissing New baby Vadie I tear up. Being a new mom (my daughter was born 13 days before their accident) it strikes a cord. Its so tragic. ..Why is it that its always the drunk driver who gets to live after taking lives of another??

I see you in my PT, I see your ticker that she is a boobie fed baby for 6 months 6 days. I don't know why you aren't there for me to comment to. I don't know why she isn't the best chunker around to just get fat and amazing off your wonderful boobie juice. Man I miss you. Too much.
