He is like my own kid.

5. Thank you Txindy- It means so much-
to have your support.
I just tried to reach ALL of my family members,
but no one answered.
The nephew and his newly pregnant wife, (they got her pregnant
to get her out of Iraq) are all headed for a famiy reunion in Indiana.
I can't reach any of them on the phone and I am freaking out.
He volunteered to return to duty so that he could be
closes to his wife in Iraq to protect her- After just a few months
there she said, "get me outta here!"
That is when they devised a plan to get her pregnant-
it worked, but the fact remains that he volunteered to
go back, BEFORE the impregnation plan-
I am now TERRIFIED for his safety.
GOD DAMN you GW.

6. Keep us updated when you do get through to him
I'll be thinking of you and your nephew. I wish there was more I could say. Hold together, though. If he's on his way to a reunion, it may not be his group being called up. Surely they wouldn't have let him take off if it was.

7. The Bush BASTARD doesn't care about Family reunions-
He and his murderous KKKabal would not
care a whit about our family reunion.
I did reach his dad just now, my brother-
He has heard nothing about his son being part of this
deployment to FUBAR cluster-fuck world-
said he will get back to me tomorrow about it.
:cry: In the meantime...
