Thank you for sharing, Caroline. I'm so glad your husband was one of the fortunate. The road hasn't been easy for either of you I'm sure, but today is a day to be thankful he made it this far.

I, too, am married to a Vietnam Vet and have learned that life is not what you plan, it's what you grab out of it. We have been married for over 33 years and he suffered a nervous breakdown over twenty years ago. It's been a long emotional road to travel since then, but I would rather have travelled that road with him, than without. My heart does a 'catch' when I realize what would have happened to him without my support and love and without the love of our children. He now says that the struggle of living was worth it to be around for his grandchildren. Happy Thanksgiving.

This helps me remember that the little graces are always there even when we think we can't see them or forget. Thinking of you. Thank you for sharing such tenderness.

I'm so glad Correna directed you here, Sandy. Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts. May peace always be with your husband, too. Both of you have my appreciation for his service.
