One thing we hear frequently from MADD victims and survivors is that coming to MADD often feels like a relief to them because, here, they finally find a group of people who REALLY understand their deepest feelings. With that in mind, we wanted to share (with permission) a poem that one Tennessee mom has written talking about her feelings during the holidays. We hope that it can help someone else to feel better in knowing they are not alone.
MADD knows that journaling and writing poetry can be an important part of healing for many victims. We have a Poetry Collection of pieces written by our victims you may wish to review as well. You may even have a piece you’d like to contribute. Click the link for more information.
