 My youngest graduated from his 2nd phase of training finally after being in medical rehab for 3 months. He was taken to 29 Palms a city in California near Parker Damm and Havasu City. He will be there for 7 weeks or so once training begins. Training will be delayed since there is a wait to begin and he could be waiting for a month or two now to start the last of the training. If he had gone on with his graduating class from Boot Camp and not been delayed in med. rehab he would be in Iraq. They sent his group there he told me. So the possibility of him going when he is completed is high. They were all reservists in the group that went. Our relationship is on again/off again. It will never be the same for so many reasons. We get along better when he is not living in his friends home with the parents there. |

 I know it must be tough for you that he could wind up going to Iraq. No matter how our kids treat us, we still can't help worrying about them. Hugs.  |

Wanda, I'm glad to hear that JJ's injury has healed up enough...and that he is proceeding with his training. I think that Iraq deployment...is something that weighs heavy on all military parents/families minds. Although Ben hasn't been sent yet, we know he could be any time. Having had one son in Iraq for 2 yrs... I know it's very difficult for everyone. Hoping for all the best for JJ....and for you, too....you've sure been through a lot with him....I guess if we didn't love our kids so darn much, they couldn't hurt us so much, could they....but of course we do. Hang in there...! |

Thanks everyone_ Penny- You're right, no matter what JJ does we still love him and trying to support him. I get mad/hurt but try to keep it in prospective because I do want him in my life if possible. |

I hope you are wrong and he doesn't have to go to Iraq. I have been against that war from the word get go, but that doesn't prevent me from worrying over the innocent service personnel that are over there fighting the war. I totally understand you wanting to stay in touch even if things are strained. That is why I have worked so hard to mend bridges with Mom, 2 sisters and even Dad's memory. have a good night, Josie. |
