UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear family and friends, Tomorrow (Wednesday) we will be meeting
Benjamin at the airport. We can't wait to see him!! He will be in NY
for just about a month. On the 30th of December he has another dr's appt
in San Diego. That will probably be when they start to decide what his
future with the Marines looks like. He cannot put any weight on his
right foot for a month and cannot run or carry much weight for a year.
It will be good to see what he actually looks like for ourselves!!
Thanks once again for your prayers and encouragement. Love, Shirley

Thanks for the post. And let it be known that these brave young men are risking their lives, fighting for a cause for all of us (even for LIBERALS!) so that we can sleep at night and feel that our kids and loved ones will be safe.
They are all our loved ones now, fighting to rid this scourge of humanity from existence. May God keep them safe
