She further said, “We crashed … she fell on me, and when I looked at her I [saw] blood – and I knew”.

“I didn’t care about prom. I didn’t care about anything. I just wanted her to be OK”, she added of her mother, who was later pronounced dead at a local hospital.

“It’s difficult”, she continued. “I just still can’t believe it”, she added.
