I have been having a natter with my soldier son on the phone, I was telling him about my writing for college. I was asked to write about the worst day in my life. I wrote about the day he left for Iraq. How I had watch him sleep the night before and stroked his hair and traced his face with my finger. The morning he left I watched him get on the coach and was surprized to find him staring at me though the window. I remebered thinking.What was on his mind? tonight he said I wanted to remeber you waving and smiling . So if I got shot it would be my last memory of you. YES. I just cried.

Sons don't always tell you their feelings but it doesn't mean they don't have them. Bless your son and hope he stays safe where ever he is. Liz

My neighbour's young, unmarried son is serving in Afghanistan. She said that people say to her 'Thank God he hasn't got a family to worry about' As she says - so what am I then, what are his sister and brother, his nephews and nieces - are we not his family? OC
