My friend's son is beginning his journey out of Iraq, tonight, for R & R.
After the recent chopper attack, she's more worried about him than ever. Please send out your positive energy, good vibes, and earnest prayers that he makes it safely into Kuwait and home to his mom.

Many, many thanks! :grouphug:

2. hope he makes it safely
As a mother, I cannot imagine the pain that is in the hearts of the hundreds of Moms and Dads who have lost a son or daughter in this senseless conflict. Hopefully, once he's clear of Iraq, the rest of his journey will be reletively calm. I'll be sending good thoughts along!:hug:
