I will never know my parents

On December 7th 1986 my parents went to a party and decided to get drunk... and then drive home... Well it impaired their decision making because my dad thought he could beat a train. He didnt make it. The train hit the passenger side and my mother died instantly. My father was on life support for 2 months and 2 days after the accident, and my family made the decision to let him go. My father was only 21 and my mother was only 20. I was only 6 weeks old so unfortunately I will never get the chance to really know them. I am glad, however, that no one else was killed or injured.
