Story

2 years ago today, I received the most devastating news ... my brother Shane (25) had died in a car accident. 

http://www.basingstokegazette.co.uk/news/10818818.Driver_died_after_losing_control_of_car_on_bend/
Two other people were injured but he was the only fatality, he had massive head trauma and his spinal injuries. I seek comfort when the police officer said he would have been dead instantly, because I wouldn't want any pain or suffering for my brother.

The accident took place on a horrid road, I visited it, it's so dangerous; you travel along and you see many memorial spots for others who lost their lives there and now Shane has joined them.. This road is  the A339 between Alton and Basingstoke.

Last year my family and I raised money by doing a skydive, this year I plan to do nothing as dramatic. I am editing the page so we can simply add to the amount already raised in his memory!

Growing up with my 2 brothers that live at home still ( Pat and Shane ), we all had one thing in common, we all enjoyed to play computer games together. Many hours on the N64. and playstation and many hours of me admiring how good they were.

They inspired to play games, and to try get better at them. I am now a twitch livestreamer, growing a small community www.twitch.tv/ria_gaming/profile  on Twitch.tv you can play your games to the world!

In an attempt to raise road safety awareness I am going to stream for 24hours straight!  Please help me, I just want to spread the word how important it is to drive safe and carefully. My brother died by a car that WAS doing the national speed limit... So what more can we do! rather than just lowering it.



Thank you for taking the time to read this.
You can find my livestream on: www.twitch.tv/ria_gaming/ at roughly 7:00pm-7:30pm
