At the beginning of this blog I (foolishly) wished I didn't pass medical. Yesterday, we found out I didn't pass medical. I don't get to go, which is totally, completely, indescribably sad/disappointing/depressing/awful. We don't know what this means for our family yet. Our biggest fear is that the Mr will be sent to Japan or Afghanistan for 1 year. If he went to Japan we'd be able to visit him, but he will miss out on so much with K and that breaks my heart.
I'm praying our new journey will be set out before us quickly. I can't articulate why this is so disappointing. Japan grew on me and we started to dream about what life would be like there-- how fun our new adventure would be. Now, the unknown coupled with the loss of those dreams leaves an ache I haven't felt in a long time. Like I said, I don't really have the words for it.
Lee-I'm so sorry. The military is kind of a mystery. When I told Randy he said, "so they are going to separate her from her husband and that's supposed to help?" I just wish I could hug you, or help in some way. I just know that it is going to workout...some way.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that, my dear :(
ReplyDeleteYou've become so much stronger and amazing over the years.
You and Keith and Kate will survive whatever lies ahead!
Thank you Mel!
ReplyDeleteBecky- hopefully I'll see you soon. Then I'll take you up on that hug :)
