In 1981 we almost lost our little son one afternoon. I had gone to get my husband where he taught school so he could have a bit of lunch. Our son and his little friend were in the back of our car (Volkswagen bus). I was making a U-turn and the children were jumping around, when all of a sudden I felt a bump and through my rear-view mirror I saw that the back doors of the van were wide open. I turned around and was horrified to see that the two children were not there.
