3 generations under one roof

After Nita left, my husband went out looking for me, I turned left on my walk, but he turned right out of the road leading to the swim hole. That left turn i took saved my life in many ways that day. When he came looking for me I was already out of sight so he in his drunken way of thinking thought I would walk the 40 miles home or at least attempt too.

I would link to the article that documents the accident and his blood alcohol level but that may get me in trouble. His BAC was .128. He passed out according to the police report doing a high rate of speed and hit two sixteen year old girls head one. Luckily, air bags deployed and the girls were treated and released at a local hospital.

He suffered damage that day, broken toe, broken bone in his left check, numerous cuts that required stitches on his arm and leg. He lost his girlfriend, totaled her car, and lost me, that day. His stuff was packed in garage bags and set outside

He told me that day that he hit a light pole. It took 3 months for the real truth to emerge in the Towanda Daily review about mid September 2005. That is when I learned he hit the girls head on. I was so angry, what if that had been our kids? Our kids are now 16,.18 and 21 so just subtract three years, and you will see that it could have been our kids.
