It was right before thanksgiving over a year ago when my sister called me with the heartbreaking news that a best friend of mine was in the hospital in intensive care and wasnt going to make it. he was driving down the interstate in ohio on a bad stormy night and he was drinking and driving when his car slid into a parked semi!!! he was an amazing friend and it was only two weeks after his 18th birthday that this incident occurred.....even after a year his friends and family still think about him daily and miss him to no end......i love him and i hope he is ok in heaven
