Great thread, Kathy!
I guess our longest distance from home at Christmas was
when we moved to Germany. It was kind of lonely...except
that we got together with friends. You do that when you
are in the service and are so far away.
We had also just found out that my mom was dying of a
brain tumor and I felt so isolated and helpless in the
face of that.
Together as a family, yet so far from more family.
*HUG*
I’m so sorry you had to go through that!
