A Victim's Story

Imagine waking up in a hospital trauma unit and being told by a doctor that your 15 year-old-brother is dead. I wished I had died with him. Tim and I were very close as brothers and spent a lot of time together. A drunk driver - with a blood alcohol level of more two times the legal limit - ended this. My mother and Dad lost a son, and my sister and I lost a brother.

The weather was cool, but bright and sunny on May 15, 1981. Tim and I were going on a fishing trip. Tim had just bought a new fishing rod with money from part-time jobs after school. He was anxious to try out his new rod. On the way up we stopped to get something to eat. Tim was a real outdoor person - he loved nature and outdoor activities. The crash occurred when a drunk driver crossed over the center line of the road and hit us head-on. Tim and I were rushed to a hospital.

The doctors tried to    I    Tim so they could ___II    him to the Hospital    III    Sick Children in Toronto.    IV    Tim's injuries were massive,     V    in the end they    VI    save him - Tim died.    VII    impact of the crash    VIII    devastating on the whole    IX    . My sister, who was    X    13 years old, did not want to believe that Tim was dead and insisted that he had gone fishing for the weekend, and would be back on Sunday. I spent a couple of months in the trauma unit. I did not get a chance to say goodbye to my little brother. Tim's funeral was held while I was in hospital. They say time heals all wounds - if that's true then there are a lot of wounds still trying to heal...
