Has it really been a month since I wrote? Geesh! Things are busy and getting busier. We're awaiting the arrival of Sunday's aerovacs bringing with it the newly wounded. Most are coming out of Afghanistan. Used to be a time when everyone came from Iraq but no longer as OEF has taken the lead.
As I read through the reports of tomorrow's incoming one WIA in particular caught my eye. He's so badly injured it's easier to say what's RIGHT with him than what is wrong. Those are the ones that wound my heart, so grievously broken it would be better if he simply slipped away. However it is not for me to judge, but instead to mend what I can. To nurture and encourage and to hold a hand.
This started out as letters home to my friends and family while I was at Hurricane Katrina, and continued through my deployment to Afghanistan. I have recently added my friend Clara Hart as a contributor. Now it very roughly chronicles life as a civilian, and citizen of the USA. If you need some assistance with Workplace Safety Programs, please let me know, I am happy to help.
