Hi to the author of this post, I dont know your name but I would like to

applaud you for a great post. My husband is in the Air Force, still

stateside, but waiting for his orders to go. This war, unfortunately,

touches us each in a different, and maybe not so different way. My kids sit

and wait, like they did a year ago, for their daddy to go away, and although

I try to be strong for them, they still sense the stress.

Kinda the same with CF, I try to be strong for them, so they see good in

everything, but realize that sometimes things not so good happen. We are all

battling this disease on one level or another, and we are either at different

places with our individual battle, and some of us are in kinda the same

place, but we are all together with it. I like coming here, it gives me a

chance to discuss things that are important to me, things that I cant talk to

just anybody because they dont understand. People on this list who are in

the same place because of the war invite those of us who have no one to talk

to about the fears of both things. The understanding here is much

appreciated.

Take care,
