Four weeks ago to the day I lost my grandmother to cancer. I lost my father-in-law to a heart attack on 26 July, and now the Army has me serving as a casualty assistance officer to a family who's father (also in the military) passed away. The father was only five years older than I am. I'm feeling pretty low right now, and my wife is still with her mother. I'm hoping that by the time my B-day comes (in two weeks) things will be going better. I really need something to go right at this point in my life.
