NewBeginnings 06-21-2008, 02:48 PM Your in my thoughts and prayers hon. I saw my husband the last time at the viewing and I had to tell him goodbye. I couldn't bare to do it so instead I said, "In the Navy we never say goodbye. We say see you later.." I kissed him on the forehead, did the same to Maddie and walked out of the room. You will get through this.You are a very strong woman. If you need ANYTHING to cry, scream, vent, to just talk you can PM me and I'll give you my number. I've been where you are at. No, he didn't die in action but he still died. I know the feelings you are going through and I'd love to offer any help you may need.

I've been thinking of you and offering a small prayer each evening that you find the strength you'll need to carry you thru.
I spoke with my husband about you and Andrew. He asked me specifically to offer his condolences to you and his family.
We're all here for you.
