Okay Blyn...God bless you...first off if your step-daughter is your husband's daughter then it is pretty normal that her mom is being a bit difficult...just do the best you can...keep your cool...and don't allow yourself to get pulled in to her stuff. Stick to the facts...smile and go to You tube and listen to that son "I'll pray for you" lol! when things get tough, sit down with that beautiful little one and play. Today will pass by and tomorrow will come and don't miss a moment of memories with the little one. Tonight make a paper chain with your two year old for the days until daddy comes home! Hang it up and every night tell a story about daddy and make a picture for him to put in a book for when he comes home!

I am sorry for everyone who is having a bad day or didn't get letters. I hope you have a better night than day and I hope you get a letter soon. I had to chase down my mail lady as I was leaving and I had a letter!!! I was so excited. Of course I cried. I am very emotional as it is and this doesnt help. So I cry about everything and when I say everything I mean everything.

OMG. Iowa. I am so sorry. I have a friend who is in the medical ship right now. Dont worry he will be calling you soon I am sure. They just have to move him to the medical ship it is ship 5. My friend is allowed a 20 minute call everyday to his wife. So if you dont hear something to day you will tomorrow.

Thank you Lynne, I appreciate it and maybe I will visit that. I cried yesterday when I dropped my 14 year old off at school and it was meet me at the pole day, prayer day at the flag pole and I cried and prayed and look it helped I got my letter. I can appreciate they need to vent, but hate to hear him frustrated! Thank you

My understanding now is they will evaluate him, they will see if they can fix the problem in a reasonable amount of time and if they can he will continue limited training but nothing that would put his shoulder at risk. If they can't fix the problem he may be sent home, but if it is fixable over a period of months he could then get a medical waiver and go back again. So, let's pray, think good thoughts, claim his healing and wait. I bet there are lots of great prayers here. Now about the address I don't know. Jessica..how is my answer??
