We got married because we agreed that we would get out of the army after Korea and now he tells me he wants to go to Germany! I really don't know how i feel about this. I want to get a few more degrees and have a career of my own but if we're off in Korea or Germany and he's deployed ... I'm not the best with stress like that .. i really don't think i could handle it. One of the girls who i met on another support forum just lost her husband recently, she was 8 months pregnant at the time. She was amazingly strong in the way she handled it. I'm just not that strong ..i'd probably die right along with him if something like that happened. I knew when i married him that he loves his job and that he had thought about staying in for the 20 so he could retire. I would hate to impose my wants on him by asking him to leave the army if its what he truly wants to do. My career is important to me to a certain point but i wouldn't risk my marriage by pursing it. So, thats not the issue. What I worry about the most, and the main reason i would like him to get out is his safety. I'm terrified that something will happen to him while he's deployed some where. He's already served his country over 8 years and he's been deployed, pretty much everywhere during that time. I just don't see the purpose in putting his life in danger when we're trying to start a family together. UGGHH.. we'll probably end up in Germany after Korea .. i just needed to vent a little.

Oh Diana! I saw the pictures, and all I can say is that I hope that you are back up and moving soon. Maybe someone can be your typist for you and they can type your posts (dictation). Wendi

Sorry to hear that hope you are feeling a little better.. hope you fell better soon. Tina

I had a wreck on my bike and bit the dust (concrete). I broke my right arm at the elbow, my right femur just above my knee, got 7 stiches in my chin and bleed from left ear and broke 3 teeth. I am a mess. I am reading posts, but, I can't respond for bit. I do hurt. I am totally right handed. I put a couple pictures on my pofile. It hurts worse than it looks. Diana

Dont ya just hate playing the hurry up and wait game... lol I clair it seems sometimes ya take one step forward and two steps back. I guess now is a good time to practice our patience. I wish you luck on your SOON to be surgery. It will get here even though we feel like it is taking forever.
