Dr. Phil!
Please support us by watching Dr. Phil this Wednesday September 16, 2009! Make sure you tell all of your friends to help support the soldiers as well!! Also, you'll be able to check us out on drphil.com!
my son is in training to become an airborne ranger with the army. It is always a questions..will he come home alive after being stationed somewhere? What do the soldiers need? How can we support them? You will be a charity organizatin for us now and in the future. Soldiers are proud and want to fight for our country, yet those left behind are the ones who mourn. My son told me he would rather die fighting for our country and our freedom, than to die some other way. It took me awhile to soak that comment in. In other words, he wanted to die fighting for what he believed in and for us to remember how proud he is to be a soldier for the United States. Now I know he was preparing me for what may possibly be my future...a mom grieving a son who was a soldier. How ironic, I prepared him to be independent,and he is doing the same for me. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so proud of your son, and as most sons want, to live rejoicing in his memory. Mary I salute you and your family. You have all made a gigantic sacrifice and everyone who watched dr.phil today now know how they can help. Hoorah to all of you! Thank you and your family, Kim Snow Sioux Falls, SD
Mary, we are so Proud of You! This is not what you would have choose, but it has become your destiny. You are a HERO for Adam and our Troops, they APPRECIATE YOU, and their Families APPRECIATE all that you do. Thank you just is not a big enough word to describe what is in my HEART for you and your Family! Semper Fi!
