Hello everyone! My son went to boot camp on 8/19 and is in div 327. To say I have been having a hard time with him being gone, would be an understatement. I have gotten a letter from him and have talked to him on the phone once. I missed one phone call. That was depressing. I was really worried about him when I did talk to him. He was very homesick and was upset on the phone. His letter started off well, but quickly turned. I am happy to report he talked to his dad last Thursday and seemed to be doing a little better. I am really hoping I can talk to him again soon!!! 4 more weeks to go!!!

I just got a call from my son. Not so happy. His leg is hurting, but will not go to medical. He's afraid of being set back. I am praying for him. That's all I can do. 14/327

Kyle'sMom, I am glad he is doing better. Their emotions go up and down. My son has been down because he was sick. I haven't heard from him since last Thursday, so I am hoping he is better. The hardest part is that they get over their sadness, homesickness, sickness, etc. a lot quicker than we do because it's a week before we know how they are doing. For all I know my son got better the day after we last talked. Hang in there. I hear it gets better. :)
