I am the "sister-in-law" that had to tell this mother about her daughter. Although my pain measures nowhere near hers on the same spectrum, I can't bear to relive that day. Renee and Eric have a powerful message for those of you who will listen. Please try everything in your power to convince your friends not to drive if they've been drinking ANYTHING AT ALL. And isn't it even better to figure out a way to have fun where you'll wake up the next morning with no regrets?

My son was recently hit by a drunk driver...my son was a pedestrian, he survived...I am very thankful that he is alive and he is healing. I am so sorry for the loss of these 2 girls lives...the laws in Kansas are very lax...they say here that an intoxicated driver doesn't know right from wrong...all he is going to get it a dui....I think it is horrendous what happens when people drink and drive...Thank you for sharing this....I will post it on my channel as well. God Bless you and heal you.
