Today has been an awful day. I received phone calls from both my mom and grandma while I was in genetics lab and decided to listen to the voicemail from my grandma (particularly because she barely even knows how to use her cell phone and yet called me). After talking to my mom I learned of the shooting at Ft. Hood. Since then I've been crying just about all evening. My worst nightmare has always been that something horrible would happen while Zack was still in the US, and therefore supposedly safe. All I can say is thank God that Zack didn't graduate on time and thank God he's at BOLC II in Oklahoma. It tears me apart to think of the poor men and women, who sacrifice everything to defend us, be gunned with no form of defense. And by one of their own. How absolutely terrifying. To top if all off, despite their situation, these HEROES went straight into action to help those who were wounded. I'm praying for EVERYONE at Ft. Hood and all of the friends and families of those affected.
Zack goes to Ft. Hood in May/June and now I'm concerned about his safety not only during his deployment, but also while at his home in Texas. I'm glad the major survived. I truely want him to have to live with this everyday and feel the pain of his unbelievable betrayal. How dare him.
Love, Heather
