Thanks Cheri - I'll tell her.

We had a scare with her recently. Her blood pressure skyrocketed and docs found a suspicious spot on her brain. She's in real danger of having a stroke. With all the burden she carries, we've been trying to help keep her balanced. She's not allowed to take a day off from life, and she can't turn her back on people who need her. It would TRULY break my heart if I lost her.

I long for this madness to stop too. I wish every person would read the personal stories of the men/women we're losing over there, and take each one to heart. I wish they'd ask themselves if that person really deserved to die - and if surviving loved ones deserve to suffer.
