Bigmama, Hope you are feeling better. that wind was freezing cold! but worth it to see them all come home. Wish we could have met.
pschip, happy you are on the mend! I wish I could have met you too. just so many people, all there to celebrate our sailors coming home!
I am asking for prayers for my girl. On Easter Morning, her Husband left her, he told her it was because she didn't call him enough while deployed! the real reason, I will give you the jest, to much to type...He quit his jobe right after they deployed, told her he quit in Jan. because his boss was a ragging alcholic, spent every penny of her deployment pay, opened credit card in her name, she did not know about, stopped paying the last 2 months on the mortgage, cars, and other bills,.was sleeping with other women, and using drugs. Thank god I was there for her. paid up all the bills for her. She is pressing charges for the credit card,.threw him out, and is working to restoreing her credit. Talked to her command, the SSO, and legal.She can not jeperdize her Security clearance! if there are any of my Navysisters near Augusta Ga. I would love it if you could check on her for me .

Carrie, I am so sorry for your stress breakdown. This whole homecoming was very hard on us also. We spent almost 6hours on the pier waiting for our son to come off in the freezing, wind. I had 5 layers off shirts( no cost because I am a dummy) and I was in my wheelchair( arthritis) and we still missed him getting off. We took 250 photos of the ship coming in and finally had to go sit in the car. He is a nuke and they warned us that they are the last ones off. Anyway I spent Sunday night and all Monday morn in a local E.R. With pnuemonia taking I.V. Antibiotics, steroids and breathing treatments. I think if I had just used some sense and stayed in one of the tents ( or the car) I probably would have been fine. I was just so excited to see him, my husband couldn't get me off the pier. The power of Negative Stress is awful. We are still in Norfolk, doing better and having a good visit with our son now. He is still trying to decompress himself and just wants to play video games and eat take out. We have a bunch of them staying in his room(got some roll away beds) and they are having a good time. Back to Utah tomorrow - what an experience- 9 months of worry , whew!

Carrie thank The Lord it was negative! My husband had a similar experience related to stress. Scared him into becoming healthy!!
Well it was with sweet sorrow to say goodbye to our sailors last night. We were fortunate to have time with family, our son and his friends. What upstanding young people!! We are so proud and our hearts are full.
