The Hamms, a local family, car was thrown into a ditch in a tragic accident on Turnberry Dr. right outside town, yesterday morning Insiders say an unidentified man’s car slipped on the ice and crashed into the Hamm’s car causing them to skid off the road in the ditch. Bill Hamm, 42, and his wife Stephanie Hamm, 40, were reportedly killed on the spot. Their daughter, Mia Hamm, 17, and their son, Teddy Hamm, 7, were rushed to the hospital in grave condition.
Teddy Hamm reportedly died in the hospital 2 hours later and Mia Hamm had fallen into a coma. A nurse to the now orphan girl told reporters, “It’s all up to her now. She decides if she stays or goes, but right now it isn’t looking so good. All of her family is dead, she probably doesn’t want to live anymore. She think she has nothing else to live for.” An insider, who was recognized to be Mia’s grandfather added a follow up statement, “I understand if Mia wants to go. If she does stay awake we all know her life will never be the same. I will learn to accept the fact that she wanted to be with them, if that is in fact what she wants.” Her close friend, Kim Schein, seems to have a different opinion, “I just wanted to let Mia know, she still has family. If she wakes up, she’ll still have people there for her.”
Mia’s condition slowly seemed to be increasing until Kim was reported to be bringing in Mia’s boyfriend, singer of the local band “Shooting Star,” Adam Martin to visit her. Inside sources say he paid Mia a visit that was cut short by the hospital staff. Immediately following the little encounter, her condition spiked which immediately resulted in another operation. Yet Adam, was spotted visiting his girlfriend again. No one knows quite what he said to her in there, but it was enough to wake her up, to change her mind. When asked about it he simply said, “I told her to stay.” Heather Wellington, a nurse and close friend of the family told the press, “I bet she'll be a stronger person because of what she's lost today. I have a feeling that once you live through something like this, you become a little bit invincible.” (Pg 122)
