    I'm really gonna need alot of support over the next 18 months.

    Just got off the phone with my son... and can't stop crying... I know i knew it was coming, but But hearing him say.. In July he Deploys to Wisconsin, and from there to the Kandahar Valley in Afghanistan..... All I can think of is the Post that Gobs101 made the day her son was killed in Iraq.... I'm so scared i can't stand it... I have to be up at 5am, and I know i'm not going to sleep.. I'm hoping i will be ok at least until he leaves.. just not sure how i'm gonna handle it when he's actually gone...

    LORD HELP ME!!!!

    Oh no. Maybe getting in contact with others who have kids there will help you. You will have a support group that can relate to your fears for them.

    You can talk to me, My Daughter was there for a year. It will be the hardest thing you will ever have to do but we will help get you through it. For sure we will send him letters and stuff too if you would like. I know my daughter would write also. We are waitng on her papers right now to see if she is being pulled again.
    Hugs and prayers to you!!!!!

    I really hope they do like they're doing in Iraq and let the soldiers come home. Maybe then your son wont have to go. I'll keep you and your son in my prayers.

    Don't even think that. You have a huge family here for you.
    Insanity is hereditary. You get it from your kids.

BUT.. my nephew is going next month... and they are going to the same area.. my son is training to pick up and transport/protect, the prisoners my nephew's unit will be capturing... WOW.. not sure i'm strong enough for all this
