Reading in the paper and on Facebook about the 20th anniversary of Amber Hagerman's abduction made me stop and think about what a horrible death she must have went through. My ex sister in law that was married to my brother was her Aunt. Her sister who was Amber's grandma I knew back when we all lived in Brownwood. One never knows what might happen.
Amber was the same age as my daughter was when she died, 9 years old. My daughter died in a house fire. That was a horrible death. No one knows how much she suffered. The firemen told me the smoke probably over come her before she suffered too much. Maybe they just wanted me to feel better. Or maybe it is really true.
The suffering Amber had to go thru was worse I am sure. No telling what that monster did to her plus he slit her throat. That had to be so horrible for that little girl to go thru all of that. And then for the parents to have to wonder what all happened and what she probably went through. That has to be a nightmare one could never get over.
I know kids have been abducted before she was. I don't know why they decided to do the Amber alerts after her death. I know it is a good thing. It has helped countless kids be found. Amber's Mom has helped a lot with her speaking to people about it and just all kinds of things she has done.
They have never found Amber's killer either. You would think someone would know something about that day or he might have told someone about it. Nothing can bring Amber back but it would help to know that monster is not walking around trying to find other little girls to abduct and kill.
I will never forget Julie and I will never forget Amber either. May they both RIP. Maybe they are both in heaven playing together. They are forever 9 years old.
