Life isn't getting easier.

My parents got a call sometime after 10:00 last night...if you remember, my cousin is in Iraq...well, something happened...my dad wrote about it in his blog:

My nephew in Iraq had a bomb explode under his Humvee. He is in critical condition. His right arm has been amputated below the elbow. He has lacerations on his face. They are evaluating injuries to his back and abdomen.


I'm still in shock about this. I just want him to be okay.

OMG.... hopefully they'll be able to get him feeling better and send him home. It'll be hard for him, but its better than being dead.
