http://itsokmom.blogspot.com/2007/03/patrick-loftus.html
Saturday, March 10, 2007. This is a picture taken of my grandfather Patrick Loftus. And here is my sons story. During that talk my sons ears were standing on end couldnt believe what he was hearing and couldnt remark on what was said because of rank issues. so he sat there screaming inside " I AM PATRICK LOFTUS'S GREAT GRANDSON! Once the meeting or converstation was over the person left and all contact was lost. Ira had no choice but to let it go. So so close and yet so far. Just had to ask!

Sunday, February 18, 2007. Where are my dentures? When my son was deployed to Iraq the stress factor. Was horrible but little did i know who badly it could get on me. or what it could do. i did remember the time when my mom passed on and someone. Thought it would be nice if i went to the hair dresser, she was washing my hair and asked me if i was sick with something like cancer i said no. why do you ask she said your hair is falling out in large amounts. That would do this to me. i found with Ira. And we...

NavyMoM: taking a look back ( mail call and phone calls)
http://itsokmom.blogspot.com/2007/01/taking-look-back-mail-call-and-phone.html
Wednesday, January 17, 2007. Taking a look back ( mail call and phone calls). You know being a military mom isnt easy at all. But here are a few things you should know. Each branch of the military does it diffrently yet same same. So its best if your a army mom to ask another army mom what basic is like and what to expect . The kid is gone off to become a sailor. What do you do? Well the frist thing i did was go home and have a good cry. Then i waited for ira to contact me. And send those off. Dont write...

Friday, May 20, 2005. Laugh or cry its my choice. You know they say if life gives you lemons make lemonaide? Yea right that is just exactly what i thought back then . i couldnt have seen the forrest through the trees back then or the humor in anything back then . I was lucky if i could get up and face one day and get by with out panicing or having major anxiety attacks. it was aweful. I would jump when the phone rang or when someone knocked on the door before noon. You see during that time in the beginni...

Monday, January 08, 2007. Boy the things you remember later :) the fire across the street that almost took us out. My son was leaving gitmo after a few months serving there. he called me to say i will be back at base on such and such day. It was an old chruch so it went fast. and because the church wasnt into putting in alot of new things it burned clean too. thank god for that one. the one down down had so much material in it that it burned toxic fumes. Hugs and love and happy new year from this vet mom...
