Sad, sad story...
The 17 year old step-son of one of my coworkers got into a horrible car crash the other night. He is now in a coma with only a 10% chance of ever waking up. If he does wake up, more than likely he will be a veggie. The REALLY fucked up part of it was that the driver and other passenger were on Extacy when they drove and crashed and they only sustained minor injuries (for a car crash at 80 miles an hour into a tree). It's all fucked. He was sober and needed a ride home from a party, he did not realize his friends were fucked up.
I have begun to think about all the really stupid shit I did as a teenager and sometimes I am surprised I am still alive and in good health. Driving drunk, driving on acid, driving on mushrooms, driving on coke, driving with people who were totally fucked up, going home with men I did not know, mixing all kinds of drugs and alcohol into a fancy coctail.
I worry about my daughter when she gets older; the pressures to party and do stupid shit. I hope I can aid her in making responsible decisions for herself. I hope she can learn from my bad decisions and know that fucked up shit can happen if she's not careful.
