My cousin, who is from the “military” side of the family, got married recently. Her husband had enlisted into the military and was sent to Bahgdad, in the thick of it all. We got word a couple days ago that he was separated from his unit and was hit by shrapnel from a grenade. His actions may have helped save the rest of his unit, but at a cost. The good news is, he’s going to survive. The bad news is it hit three vertibre, tore up his arm, and hit both his eyes. Luckily no major nerves are severed but they are not sure if he’ll get full vision back or be able to walk without a cane. I am sick for my cousin, as she has only been married a couple months.

Her husband was awarded a Purple Heart and is being sent state side for his series of surgeries. Prayers and good vibes that can be spared would be wonderful.
