i'm not as depressed as i have been about Josh. please don't spread this around as it might pounce upon me...in revenge...because i told you about it.

seriously, colleen and i have talked about the blessing of him not being hit and how grateful we are for that. he told us that he has never been so scared in all of his life. josh suffers from depression and i do worry about his condition while in war. otherwise, i'm better than i was this time yesterday. i slept all day. it was the only way i could deal with it. xoxoxo pat
