I remember a similar conversation with my wife, I told her I was OK and she would not hear from me for several weeks. To not be alarmed, I was OK. I told her she would receive a letter to open it and read it, I did not tell her this may be the last she would ever receive. We were instructed to do this, we knew this was our last good bye and it felt like it. The tension was in the air, she knew I was going into combat under the hail of gunfire, bombs and hellfire. I said good bye, she did not cry, yet I knew she would collapse after the phone line went dead...
Thank you Positive for being there for me, may God bless you,
Scott
It is always hard when it could be the last conversation. It was not meant to be the last conversation between you and mom for you are here just as she is strong. an
ReplyDeleteSo true, I understand that now, but both your mother or I believed it was the last time then. It was a pivotal time in our lives and I had never acknowledged this to your mother, so I had to let her know.
