I SURVIVED A CAR CRASH BUT MY MOM DIED – RIGHT IN COURT, I SUDDENLY RECALLED EVERYTHING
My mom died. We were on our way home when a car in front of us crashed into us at full speed. I remembered bright light, screeching brakes, my mom screaming... then darkness. I woke up in the hospital. My mom was gone. The only person there was my dad. Since they divorced, he was barely around, only showing up on holidays. I had to live with a totally estranged dad, in his house, with his new wife. I thought nothing could be worse... until the trial. So, we're in court, and it's time for me to testify.
Lawyer: "Can you tell us what happened that night?"
Me, trying not to cry: "We were on our way home. And then… he hit us."
Lawyer: "Tell us everything you remember. How did it happen? Who was driving?"
I didn't even get to answer before it hit me. Flashbacks from the crash started flooding my mind. It all just came rushing back. The tears froze in my eyes. Oh my God, HOW DID I FORGET THAT?!⬇️Full story in the first comment See less
