cool
tell your daughter that tatoos are not good for girls if they want to have babies
the tatoos and the meds on the spine do not mix in delivery of babies
and since she wants tobecome a doc she may find this out
I was told this by a RN who works with girls who have or having babies in the future.

I am awesome. Just spend the weekend with my new sailor daughter at her PIR. Traffic was awful. Flights were messed up. But I spent 3 fabulous days with Olivia. There seems that there is alot of sickness at GL right now. Lots of sore throats, tonsilitis, and various viral things.
So PIR is this coming Friday for your daughter? WOOHOO Where does she go from there?

I read your post about the final PFA today. Was that for "all" divisions today? My son still needs to pass. I'm pretty worried...called the recruiter as you suggested but he has not heard anything. Thanks for any info you can give. :)

Our daughter is doing well. She too has been sick, but respiratory stuff. Talked with her today and she sounds better. She is ready to be finished with BC though. Her grad is 8/14-I can not wait. Our son is doing very well in that demanding Nuke program. We are hoping to visit him soon.
I will be thinking about you and praying for you as you send off your son. I will not kid you, it is so very difficult on mom. I think the kids gets so busy after a short to at BC that they soon get over any homesickness they may have had. We moms are stuck at home wondering and hoping all is well.
What is your son's rate?

I did find one other Mom who has a daughter in division 287. Her user name is Molly's Mom. I don't know how to send you a link to her page, but she is a friend on my page so you can find her that way. Take care. Paula

Have you received a real letter yet? I am hearing from some others who have loved ones in division 287. Some are positive and others have not been. I will be curious to hear what your daughter has to say about her experience so far. Hang in there. Paula
