Thank you Marty! I light my candle in memory of Jason and Matthew my 11.5 month old twins killed in a car wreck 37 years ago.

Amber, dear, I simply cannot imagine the magnitude of your loss 37 years ago, and the impact it must have had (and continues to have) on your life. My own baby David died unexpectedly after a full-term, uneventful pregnancy, when he was barely three days old. He would have been 41 years old this past May 23. Like you with your darling twins Jason and Matthew, I light my candle to remember my precious David, and I know that you and I will continue to remember them all the days of our lives.

Thank you Marty. Yes, years do not stop the grief or the loss. I often wonder what they would have grown to be.

I'm sorry for the loss of your precious baby, David.

I know that our children are playing together on some cloud.

Oh how filled with anger I was. I wanted revenge.

Finally many many years later one of my Elders told me that my anger was making me sick and it was only giving more power to the man who drank and drove.

It was suggested and it took me a long time to do, that I write a letter forgiving this man. I knew I couldnt mail it until I felt forgiveness in my heart.

I never got a response.
