Carla Lois started an online diary - a weblog - just before the army sent her son Noah to Iraq in January 2005.

Carla Lois: Having a son at war is like a constant asthma attack

Eight months later, it paid off in a way she must always have prayed it would not, when she posted a terse item headlined: "My Son Has Been Injured."

Noah had a serious spinal injury, she told her readers, and she asked them to pray for him.

Within hours, 200 emails had flooded in offering prayers, comfort, support - and news.
