Taylor University Crash on Dateline

Tomorrow night the two families of the girls whose identities were mixed up after the Taylor University crash will be on Dateline. I guess they have written an inspirational book together about the incident.

Whitney Cerak and both sets of parents were apparently on the Today show today, and there was a small piece on Inside Edition tonight. The book, "Mistaken Identity," is currently #3 on amazon.com's bestselling list. I'm hoping the Eckhart Public Library gets the book - I'm interested to read it. It's such a fascinating story.

I agree the story is fascinating, but it's also heartwrenching. I cannot imagine living through the situations these families have. I watched the Dateline special and I saw the story on Oprah. I have to say that I had tears in my eyes throughout much of both programs. Especially on Oprah when they had video clips of the Grant County Corroner admitting the error. I grew up in Grant County so the story seems very close to home. As far as I can tell, Eckhart doesn't have the book, but maybe they will get it soon.
