Pickle, I don't know that he got anything from me, but I do know that when I took him to the airport a year ago to return to his US Army base after a two week leave at home, I heard so much I needed to hear, but at the same time didn't want to hear;e.g. how he realizes he doesn't know how to have a relationship with a girl, he realizes he missed all his teen years, etc. etc. Was very painful for me to hear him, but also it was good that he had this insight into himself.
Right now I just want him to survive Iraq. That is paramount at the moment.
Thanks for the hug ((((((back to ya)))))
Carolyn
