On 1/1/05, my youngest son was severely injured in Iraq. I came to this board with a request for prayers. I know he got them. There were times in the depths of my despair when it felt to me like they were tangible --when I felt uplifted by some unknown force of energy and support.

I don't always respond to these sorts of requests with a post, but I always respond to them with some heartfelt prayers. I've come to believe that they DO help. Be assured AJ has mine! May your son come through this as well as mine has!
