gone

So i got a phone call last night that almost caused my blood to stop. i was driving home from halles pageant and my mom called saying mandy (a girl that was like my big sister growing up) had been in an accident with her two babies and they were all recieving cpr. i was speechless. i just hung up the phone i didnt say anything. i called a friend and had her pray that everything was ok. i thought about all the memories i had with this girl...i pulled in the garage and was expecting to go upstairs to hear they were alright and the accident wasnt too bad. i opened the door and all the lights were out. i heard my mom sobbing uncontrolably then she was standing there saying over and over

"theyre gone. theyre all gone. theyre dead."

all i could say was what? over and over and over. by this time my mom was pacing the kitchen still in her workout clothes. she was uncontrolable. i turned right around, walked down the stairs, and sat on the driveway and just cried. i couldnt help it. i hadnt talked to mandy in a few years. it was unreal. in such a quick moment could someone really be gone that fast. i called the girl i had asked to pray and told her the news. she was speechless. mandy and her babies. gone.

i went back upstairs and cried myself to sleep.

i left my house this mornign at 645 (45 min early) and jsut sat in my car at school. my mom called me. she said shed been up all night. she explained the accidnet....a drunk driver had sped through a stop sign going 60 mph and hit them. josh (mandys husband) is a volunteer fireman and found out about the accident when the liscense plate number flashed on the screen signalling an accident had happend. he recognized the number as his wifes. he has lost them. lost.

why?

i cant take anymore.
