First I'd like to say how sorry I am for you loss, it's so new, and the dream like feeling goes on for a while...I actually just woke up after 3 1/2 years of my husband being killed by a drunk driver...My story is on this website, I'm writing you, because, you said something I've been saying everyday, the laws are to easy on the people that take our loved ones from us...The guy that killed my husband, fled the country, he didn't feel he could handle jail...All I can say is how would he like to be in my shoes...All he would have had to do is, take responsiblity for his actions, and then he could go on with his life...I'll never be able to see my husband again, hold him, kiss him good night, look into his eyes...This man lives...and takes no responsiblity...I as you would have a drink or two and get in the car in the past...If I'm going to drink now...I make it a point to sleep over that friends house, or I simply don't go, or I just don't drink. I don't know how many lives it will take before SOMEONE, see's there needs to be changes made with the laws..Once again, I hate to intrud on your mourning, I want you to know, it never gets easier, it just gets older...if you know what I mean. Take care of yourself and your family. The one thing that has gotten me through these past 3 years, is friends and family...
