LostMyLove

Yes he intended to hit Branden and drag him. His girlfriend was in the passenger seat yelling to him that he was dragging someone but he never stopped. He eventually pulled him from under his car and dragged him to the gravel and left him to die alone. Its hurts so bad because that whole day Branden kept telling me he wanted to go ouut for his friends birthday and I didn't want him to go. Something told me to keep him home but he was so adamant on going out I gave up and let him go. Now that I think about it, it hurts so bad because I feel I could have changed the outcome of that night. His friends called around 215AM and said to come pick them up someone was shooting at the bar. But by time I got there Branden was gone. And the guy who killed him was able to post the money and is home with his family. makes you think twice about the justice system. When my son gets old enough to start asking questtions what do I tell him. How do I explain that his dad was killed by someone in such a tragic way. Why does my son have to grow up never knowing his father because this guy couldn't stop and think about what he was doing. I miss him so much and I don't think it will ever get easier because I have to look at our son everyday and think that Branden is missing every moment of him growing up. His first tooth His first word his first steps...Everything......Life is so crazy. I know God sends you obstacles to make you stronger but this was not suppose to happen....

Yes my family has been very supportive but yet the pain in still there. It has almost been a month and I want to to cry all the time but I don't think anyone really understands my pain. I feel since it has been three weeks that I am suppose to be stronger and it shouldn't hurt as much so I don't show my true feelings. I have stopped looking at pictures of him and watching videos of him because all I do is cry and I am tired of this feeling. Everyone tells me things happen for a reason and that he is in a better place now but at his age what could have been the reason to take him. The man who killed him knew what he was doing and he intentionally did it. This man posted a 25,000 dollar bail and is now living his life freely while Branden's family and myself are grieving non stop. He had three other sons. One is nine and he has twin boys that are two and now a unborn who he will never know. I just feel that it was a horrible way to die. I feel he suffered and no one was there next to him when he took his last breath. I just want to know why. I miss him so much and it is eating me alive to know I will NEVER get to hug or kiss him again. I have lost weight through these three weeks which of course is not good being 39 weeks. I haven't been eating well or sleeping. I feel so depressed and I pray that when my son comes I will feeel better rather than worse. But honestly I think I will feel even sadder knowing he's not here.

Branden Norfus was killed on August 21, 2010 due to violence. He was hit by two cars and the second carr dragged him over 1000 feet to his death. Branden was 26 years old and the love of my life. I was about 36 weeks pregnant at the time of his death. I am now almost 39 weeks and my due date is September 23rd which ironically is Branden's birthday. I have been having a very hard time facing the reality of what has happen and I still have this feeling that some way some how I can rewind time and go back and change what happened that night. it kills me to know that my son will never have the oppurtunity to meet his father. It kills me to know that Branden will never have the chance to hold his precious son. I am 22 years old and I have never been through anything as tragic as this. I have lost my grandparents but they were old and sick and it was still hard but they lived long healthy lives. I knew it was just their time and God was calling them. But with this I don't understand it because he was so young and it was unexpected and the fact I was 8 months pregnant. He was my everything. Everyday we were together since the day we met. And now I just feel alone and confused. I am still excited about my son being born but it is not the same way I felt when branden was here and we were both excited. Has anybody ever gone through something like this and if so please give me some advice. Cause I just don't know what to do with myself.
