I can't either. When our son was there, I stayed glued to the news. I knew they were somewhere west of Baghdad in an extremely dangerous area doing dismounted patrols. Of course, sometimes I imagined the worst of the worst. But the one horror even I couldn't get my mind wrapped around was the thought that he could be captured. I knew it could happen but to even think about it, well, I just couldn't go there. I pray for those boys' families every single day. I never dreamed that I would hear about such unspeakable evil in my lifetime. I thank your husband and son for their service. God bless all our soldiers and may their aim be true!
Thank you for your kind words....my son is about to leave for Iraq very very soon.....
Fishergirl,
You took those words straight from my heart.
