OMG!!!! Lynda. Thank God he went to the Hospital good going on his GF behalf Good Call Im so glad he is doing better wish him a Speedy Recovery from Me. I know is so hard when they are hurt and far away Im so stressed out with my sons situation.
Thanks for asking Judy Im hanging in there no news on my results yet and next week Donald has to see the doctor about his results Keeping my fingers crossed and alot of Praying.
He has no car in VA plus he wouldnt be able to drive that long distance with the way his back is anyway plus im not sure they are allowed to leave long distances and unfortunately I m not able to go there either its frustrating and he is just in alot of pain. Thanks for asking.
Lynda,
The magic words GF and doctor, what a blessing. Most of these guys are told to be a man and not a wimp by many people they meet in this career. Ahh, to have a lovely lady whom he might listen for good advice. YES!
Her advice was heeded and not second guessed. What a relief for everyone.
Mary
Thanks,
That's good to know. I don't have facebook, but my husband does, I'll check it out tonight.
Thanks again
Mary just saw the fotos of the ships arriving at Norfolk if you go to facebook Naval base Norfolk they have a few fotos on there
Yeap Believe Me thats how I felt many times Im praying for his health and thank you for keeping Us in your Prayers.Have a Blessed Holiday
Maria,
We have not forgotten and will not forget the anguish you have at this time. Yes, it is very hard to not be able to go jump in the car and be there in a few hours to bring him his favorite meal and a loving shoulder to lean on. that is what we as parents want more than anything, to see our sons/daughters have a happy healthy life.
Keeping you and your son in our prayers,
Mary
My son's back has not gotten better at all he is in so much pain all they have given him is medication which is not helping much now waiting on MRI results and has to see the doctor next week. I'm praying that he gets better soon its so stressful for Me that he is so far and I cant help him in any way its frustrating and Im very disapointed,
It must have been exciting to see the ships coming in Im so glad your son will be Home for the Holidays very happy for you.Thank you for asking about my son.Enjoy the Holiday Season
Nice greetings,
Met the Bush ()CVN 77) this past Saturday. 4 ships of nice young folks came into Norfolk on Saturday. Son happy and will be able to come home this coming Saturday.
How is you son feeling? Getting help for his back?
Mary
