"I started drinking and smoking marijuana when I was ten years old and now I'm fifteen years old. I'd go into my parents liquor cabinet and have parties and invite my friends over whenever my parents were out-of-town. We would see how much we could drink before we did something silly. My best friend Susan was 18 years old. One night, we decided to drive to the mall and hang out. Susan was the only one with a drivers license. That night Susan seemed kind of out-of-it, and I know I shouldn't have gotten into the car with her, but I didn't want to show that I was scared or chicken to drive with her. I never knew that Susan had been arrested before for drunk driving. She was my best friend but she never told me that. Anyway, that night on the way to the mall, we had the radio blasting and we never heard the oncoming fire engine. I can't remember exactly what happened, but I ended up in the hospital for 3 months with a broken pelvis and punctured lung. My best friend Susan died at the scene. I went through drug rehabilitation and I'm okay today. But I will never forget what happened and I'll never party with drugs or alcohol again and I'll never drive with anyone who drinks and uses DRUGS!"

I'm sorry to read your story. I believe that everything happens for a reason. Your reason was to help you realise the path you were taking in your life. If this didn't happen to you when it did,maybe you wouldn't of stopped. Maybe years from now you are drinking and put your children in the car. Then what? I applaud your new found courage. This is one of my favorite quotes I hope you will embrace. "Never regret, it's a waist of time and energy. Only learn and move on." Do not regret what happend. because you can't change it. Learn from what happend and move forward in a positive direction.
