Empty Gesture

[lady_hoshi]

15 years.  That is all he got.  Even if it were life it is empty.

Nothing will ever be enough for what he did.  He hurt my sister.  He made her lie to her family.  He isolated her from us and then he took her life.  He lied about what happened.  He came walking into the hospital the next day, claiming he loved her and wasn't to blame.  I watched her

I don't really know what to say. I'm so sorry. Thank you for sharing this with us though.

I get angry when I see stories like this. Angry that the guilty get little more than a slap on the wrist. Angry because that could be my sister. Sweetie, I am truly sorry for the loss you and your family have to endure.

only 7 or 9 of those years are for my sister. It's still all hazy.

Oh, man, that's horrible. I really can't believe that stuff like this can happen in the world, that people can be so cruel, but it can and does happen. I wish I knew what else to say. I wish the world didn't include people like that, and I wish that didn't happen to your sister, you, and your family.

I wish she were still here but she help saved 4 lives due to being an organ donor. Pieces of her are out there still doing good.

[comedychick]

Wow. And now I just feel very selfish not wanting to be an organ donor.

[lady_hoshi]

don't. It is a very personal choice. And a hard one to make. Your body is very sacred.

[kandigurl]

Wow. :(

[lady_hoshi]

thank you
