The biggest thing you really have to fear is explaining to him why talking about sand-fleas is not appropriate conversation for the dinner table.

*hugs*

It'll be okay. Every day that passes in heart ache means that you are a day closer to his return. i'm sorry for the hurt that you will feel, but be glad your feel such hurt because it only bares testiment to how much you love him.

The only love stronger then that of a mother is the love of God. I pray for your strength as well as his safety.

That's probably the most out of line/insensitive statement I've ever seen you make & you've made alot.  Do you talk that way to all parent's or are you just going for the shock value?  Do you really think she needs to hear that right now or do you even care?

So, you find that insensitive.....too fuckin bad really. I do care, and a cryptogeek will be safer in afghanistan than his mother is gonna be in the united states and that is a fuckin FACT. He will be ensconsed with the most advanced crypto equipment in the world, in a heavily fortified barracks that will be protected from the air with a large force (and is gonna be pretty near the airport) a large ground force and heavily guarded, and if there is even a drop of water in the sink, a navy patrolling for miles around it. Cryptogeeks are not let loose among the general population (think about it), so he will be wined and dined and sleep in fine style in a fashionable but thick reinforced concrete structure...... the full force of america will not allow capture or destruction of the equipment or manpower of our secure transmissions throughout the world, washington, joint chiefs and president, local CINCs, London at downing street, Kabul and so on


now you can girlie touchie feelie and swoon, but I know something about this, and his biggest risks (in and out of that shithole) are:

1. He gets caught fuckin the generals daughter and his dick gets cut off.
(Oh yeah, it is so secure that the CINC Afghanistan may have his family come and visit him there.......been done before).
2. His mom says how frightened she is for him in an email and he spews coffee all over his keyboard shorting it and electrocuting himself.
3. STDs
4. A bad liver from lots of good liqour


Why should I tell her it is good to cry and worry? She should worry MORE about the kids she has at home, they are the ones at risk, comparatively speaking.

Status: offline 		Knowing that he volunteered, should really help. Focus on that. He's going to where he's needed most. To where his skills, training and talent will be best utilized according to his wishes.

No one joins the Marines to stay home. Marines are warfighters- first in. He knew this when he joined. He volunteered. Be proud of him, for being so brave and honorable.

You've got to learn to do some thought control, and redirection. Also it helps to stay really busy. Get involved in the Family Readiness Group (that's Army terminology- not sure what the Marines call it but they must have it too)of his unit, to stay connected with the other families, and to help him and his Company with whatever you can do stateside for them. Get involved!

Status: offline 		Darling hejira,
It is hard of course when the ones we love are far away and in harm's way to some extent.  My nephew was over there 4 times and I have another nephew over there.

Ron has a point.  Your son will be well protected.  Now is the time for you to do all you can and then let it go.  Find a way to get settled with this and then make a commitment to write him (real letters are amazingly popular - especially if cookies come with it... there's a good way to send them. Catch me on the other side if you want to hear).  Hand written letters take time and they are a joy to receive... and it can be calming.

Hugs and stuff,

I empathize with you, as a mothers son myself and gives you warm hugs of comfort and reassurance that I hope help to soothe the moments of doubt and despair that you will experience.

Status: offline 		I did want to stop by on this thread again and thank DrkJourney for her kind words.  It kind of goes with what I was saying, too.  You find support in a lot of places.  CM itself has been rather good for that in a lot of ways.  Not only are there some good connections and resources here, a lot of people too numerous to mention are supportive.  There are some folks out there who will just drop you a note to say hi or make you smile.  Believe it or not, that stuff really helps.

I know you already do this part, but spending some time even just reading the P & S section on a bad day will do you wonders.  When MP was in Korea, that did Me a lot of good.  It helps while clip is gone, too.

Oh, and don't be too hard on Ron there.  From the sound of it, he's going to be pretty far back and that's a good thing.  Anybody around really expensive equipment is usually in a pretty good place and well protected.  That's a positive.

All of the rest from everyone was good advice, too, so keep all of those things in mind.  They came from good supportive people.  Remember they are there when you need them.  Going crazy or not.

Status: offline 		speaking as a mother of two sons...i can relate to hejira's feelings.
also having a Master, who has a sharp, sick sense of humor much like Ron's...i know, if i were in hejira's place ..he would laugh me out of my place of worry.
in my opinion....what Ron said was funny, realistic and simply facts.

girls like candy coatings. i appreciate the fact that some men don't know how to do that.
