Thanks for the kind words everyone! I love this group!

I have a favor to ask you all, we have a LOT of medical supplies left over that mom never used. No RX medication types, I am talking gauze pads, syringes I think, bandages, etc... I don't have time to search out a medical team who is in desperate need for supplies. Do any of you know a medic/doctor who needs some supplies? Shoot, they are paid for and I don't want them going to waste. Send me a private message with the contacts name and I will request their info. Thanks everyone!

Julie,  Watch out - you are showing how large your heart is by thinking of the troops when you have had so much on your plate. 

Hey everyone,  been coming on to read but wasn't able to post for a while,  so had to start over again, not sure why.

Anyway, I've been Mrs. A and Nana Nita.  I spent alot of time in CA this year with my brother who passed in August.  I brought my mom home to live with me in Oregon so my life has changed drastically.  Not enough to stop me sending to "my guys" though.  Mostly to the small, remote firebases in AStan.   A few of them are on facebook so I'm trying to learn my way around that.  It was good to see how everyone rallied around the guys from Lowell and Keating and let them know "we do give a s__t".  Broke my heart to see the quote from that young soldier thinking no one cared about what they had just been through.  Now they know different. 

I've wondered about alot of you too and hadn't seen many posts.  For some reason I have had Irish on my mind the last cpl weeks wondering how she is.
