Tuesday my son and I are going to visit my Dad, who is ill and might not be around by the time Eric gets back from Advance Training.
It's called being in the 'sandwich generation'....... caught between caring for parents and caring for children........and sometimes you feel a lot like a slice of bologna!
Been there, done that, got the scars to prove it! AND I was the only one of my mother's children who lived in the area. I did what I could and wished I were twins. But it was worth it, and I'll never regret it. Life is handing you a lot right now, Ohio. But NOTHING lasts forever, not even the fears you have right now. And Eric WILL BE ALL RIGHT. I pray for the two brave young men represented on this site every night.
