On our way to this wrap appointment my awesome husband whom was driving, my precious baby whom I still nursed and kept rear facing watching Mickey Mouse Club house, and I were struck almost head on at an excessive speed by a drunk driver.

Louis reported that a drunk driver slammed into the family minivan September 20 2014 near Troy Missouri. Mantia and her husband Corey were airlifted to a hospital, where Corey died the next day.

On the one year anniversary of her son and husband’s deaths, Destiny took to social media to plead with followers to think of families like her’s before getting behind the wheel drunk. The post has since gone viral and we hope everyone takes the time to read her powerful words. “We would no longer get to live our future together”, wrote Destiny.

Mantia wrote in her Facebook posting that she never got to see her son’s first haircut, never got to buy a home with her husband. “This would be it. Everything we would have ever known would come to an end and not by choice”, Destiny wrote.

Destiny said she became an angel mom and a widow at 21. “She ended my dreams that we may have had together and caused pain I never knew existed”.

Finding herself in just such an unthinkable place, one Missouri woman poured out her heart in an emotional plea posted to her Facebook page Sunday.

She then goes on to warn people of the grave dangers of drink drinking and the impact it can have on a family. The Foristell woman shared her tragedy in hopes it will keep others from drinking and driving.

‘You can save someone’s life too!

Destiny has paid the ultimate price for drunk driving that not one more mother should have to endure. Destiny penned. “Don’t allow your friends and family drink and drive”.
