“One Moment, One Decision: Heartbreaking Tales of Lives Forever Altered”
A friend’s daughter was riding her motorcycle on a backroad she’d lived on for most of her life. She blew through a stop sign going about 90 and t-boned a Jeep. The impact shattered nearly every bone in her body. Last I heard she was wheelchair bound and the doctors still weren’t sure if keeping her leg was better than amputation. She’s in PT, and probably will be for the rest of her life. Apparently they’re optimistic, but she’ll never be the same. Plus she had three small kids with a deadbeat, stoner ex.
My uncle basically ruined his life by banging a coworker. He was a security guard and got caught banging a nurse at work. He lost his job and got blacklisted or something because no one else would hire him. Now he’s eating tramadol everyday in a basic apartment with a dump vehicle. Its sad because he’s a good guy actually.
Had a choir teacher at my middle school who was accused of inappropriate behavior with a student. Before charges were even made, he took his life that evening after he left school. I remember them playing the dispatch call of himself telling the police where they’ll find his body.
I was supporting my ex and our baby. We had borrowed a car from my parents, because we were down to one car. There spare pickup died and they needed their car back (they both worked). My ex said “no.” I packed almost all my and my daughter’s stuff into the car I was returning and moved in with my parents with the baby. I stopped supporting him and his life went downhill super fast.
