Wisdom teeth went well.   He is spending the weekend at his girlfriends house with her parents and they are taking good care of him.    I just wish there had been time between his notice and leaving to actually get there....it wasn't possible with everything he also had to get done and his schedule.  

As far as emails go....it sounds like there is alot of time they cannot send messages out....BUT keep sending them because they CAN recevie them. 

I am flying to San Diego on Oct. 18th to pickup his car and drive it home....it is going to be HORRIBLE being there and my Son on deployment.

Hello Everyone!

Snickerdoodlemom rest your worries.  My son also had his wisdom teeth removed right before the last deployment. He was in good hands.  The ship is a mobile hospital.  Keep the positive thoughts and prayers.  I will also.

Adam's Mom.... It's a small world.  I am sure you have experienced a lot of the same things that I have.  Two other guys that work with Tim are Wally and James .  They are great guys.  They definitely look out for each other!

I have heard from Tim.  He said he wasn't able to communicate very much and then said it was complicated.  Who knows what that meant.  I am sure they are busy teaching, operating and settling in.

prayers for your son Snickerdoodlemom....

This weekend is going to be tough.  My son flys to Hawaii on Monday to meet the ship and get on.     He was just on Rimpac and in Hawaii.    We had a couple pretty interesting issues come up in the past few days.    Yesterday he was told he needs his top two wisdom teeth out, so that is being done today.    Just hoping it all goes well and no complications for him leaving early Monday. 

I am pretty worried about him.
