Of anything I could ever post here on my blog, this is the most important.
My brother has left Afghanistan and is COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I begged, pleaded, prayed, talked to, bargained with, begged some more and prayed even more for this day to come. Let him come home safe & alive..The universe listened and we are ever so grateful.
Welcome home Bro!!!

So happy for you that your brother has left Afghnistan, Lynne – in one oiece and is coming home. It seems nearly half will need follow-up treatment for trauma and injuries. A conflict with no winners.
Ken as an Veteran (Army) myself, I see the trauma & ruins of war at my local VA Medical Center..heartbreaking..So we are very blessed to have him home in one piece
That’s great news. From all of us at The ThrowDown, our best wishes to your family. Always glad to hear a soldier made it home safe.
Ah my funniest read on WP dudes..Thank you so kindly…Now let’s get them all home
Very exciting news, Lynne. Sweet homecoming to your bro.
Thank you so, so much..Now I will send my thoughts & energy on helping some more get home..
I pray for them all!!
As do we all. All Australian troops will be out by end 2013, at least that’s what they have told us.
Wonderful news! I’m very happy for you and your family. Imagine a world without wars. Some say it’s impossible, I don’t understand why…
Thank you Marianne.. I hate war and maybe, just maybe, one day the world will learn how to respect one another properly!!
I’m catching up on my blog-reading, and this is the first I’ve read of yours. Do I really need to read further? Hugely happy news!!!!!!!!
Best news I’ve had all year and enough to carry me through the remainder of 2012

Awesome! I want to hear amazing drunken stories about his welcome home party.
Oh no doubt there will be a bash.. he lives in Ohio, is still out processing in Kentucky, gonna let his wife have her way for a bit and them sis is coming to partee!!
a post with pics for sure!
Congratulations to you and your family. It must be a great feeling.
It is wonderful indeed..now let’s end the war so others can have that great feeling too!!
That’s amazingly positive. My brother just got home three days ago, albeit from Dubai. But I’m still relieved.
Yeah for your brother too.. It’s stressful for us left behind…Happy, happy for you !!
Even though I don’t know you, and I don’t know your brother, I am so very happy for both of you. Wonderful news.
Thank you so kindly.. HE”S HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
