Firstly, i'd just like to say well done for what you did George, and i really hope it doesn't haunt you. Your story really brought back memories of mine from about 2 years ago now. 5 friends of mine (3 of them particularly close) were all in a car after a night out on their way home, it was approximately 4 in the morning. Their car rolled multiple times on a small country road, less than half a mile from the farm road end where they were going (one of the lad's house, which incidently is on the same farm road as mine). The driver, whom i wont name, had been drinking heavily. The car was totally smashed up. After over a month in a coma, multiple operations, and his heart being restarted i was able to go and see him in hospital. When i went in it was clear to see how close he had been to dying. after being in the coma he had lost a lot of weight and had suffered from infections. He had scars all over his face and right arm. He had crush two vertibrates in his spine. but, despite all of this, he was still the same old happy friendly mate i knew before. It took him months to learn to walk again, which he still struggles with a bit, but he will always be greatful that he didn't end up like some of the other patients that were on his spinal ward. I guess God forgave him for what he did. I am sure he is also extremely grateful that he didn't have to bear the concequences of having killed someone else. All of the others in the car escaped with only bruises. Its not worth thinking about what he would have had to deal with if anything had happened to any of them. I'm sure Georges message is clear enough to everyone, but i'd just like to reitterate that the risk is just not worth taking, DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE. All of my friends realise how lucky they were, one of them especially, and he has learned the lesson, but we should not need to learn the lesson, it should be already drilled in. I also wish safe journeys on you, and next time you get in a car, you should realise the responsiblilty of being behind the wheel, not just for you and your passengers, but for all those families and friends of you and other motorists. Thanks, Andrew
