For Colleen Haggerty of Bellingham, the winter holidays last until Jan. 3. That day is the anniversary of the car accident 37 years ago in which Haggerty lost a leg.

For many years, the anniversary triggered troubling memories for Haggerty. It wasn’t until after considerable anguish, soul-searching, and her revelatory visit 15 years later with the driver who crashed into her, that Haggerty found peace in her life as an amputee.
