Milblogging.com the other day had a link to this Washington Post article
and in the article it gives a link to Jose Pequeno's CaringBridge website
I've said it before, and I'll say it again.....CaringBridge websites are a wonderful way for families of an injured or ill loved one to keep family and friends informed about the patient's condition in one central place!
(And it's not just military folks......The Carlsen twins ,the conjoined twins in MN who were recently separated, have a CaringBridge site .)
There is another recovering soldier who has a CaringBridge site that you might want to stop by. He was NOT wounded in Iraq,but sadly, was hit by a car the DAY after he RETURNED from Iraq. LCPL Ben Hardgrove
And back on March 14th, I had a link to NewsRadio 850 KOA and there were two Marines featured to send cards to on the page. While checking back on that site today, I found that one of the Marines has a long road ahead and a website has been set up about him Click here: Kenny Lyon USMC
While I urge you to consider sending cards,prayers, or messages to any of these people listed? I'd also like to use this opportunity to say that Soldiers Angels has a program to send transitional backpacks to recently wounded soldiers when they arrive at Landstuhl hospital in Germany. http://soldiersangels.org/wounded_soldier_project.php
And the Blankets of Hope program goes along with that.
Whether you choose an organization to support the recovering wounded, or choose to send just a note or card on your own? Please remember our wounded and their families in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.
