Damn! Woman! It's hard to read a story when you're trying not to cry most of the way through the story! I have to say... my family has been lucky for the most part, with the exception of an older uncle that passed away in some war before I was born, we haven't lost men to war in my family that I'm aware of, though they have gone. ...War... it had to be a man thing... we would never have bothered with something so exhausting.

You so funny, Lady S -- exhausting, yes. :) :) :) But, hey, the writing worked....so, hooray for that! ;) ;) Thanx so much for your 'always support' - so appreciated! ;) ;)
And I hope this finds you a bit less scrambled with more of the puzzle pieces finding their way back....understand that a few of them may not ever be found cuz the dog chewed part of it (hell hounds, I'm supposin' -- LOL!), but I do hope you're mostly feeling yourself again!! ;) ;) I've been thinking 'bout cha!! ;) ;) Take care of you! ;) Yvette :)

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hey Yvette. That is well written and there are a couple of lines I really liked. "I opened my eyes to hold onto the tears" was a great Description. The crushing line in the story was, "It was just me and...yeah, just me now." I knew what was coming when the cargo plane pulled up. The last statement resolved the story sadly. Good one. Z

Comment from JudyE
This is very powerful. I like the flashbacks to earlier times. I got a bit last at the end but it seemed a happy ending which was nice. I couldn't work out if she was dreaming, or he'd returned somehow, or what. But maybe you meant it to be like that and it didn't detract at all. Good luck in the contest.

So glad you enjoyed this one, Lady Judy -- just a hint: look up the name 'Arthur Curry' online...like I said in the author notes, I didn't choose the name by accident, twas deliberate. :) ;) So many folks saw this one as her committing suicide...I guess, as an author, I'm glad they got what was best for them out of it, buuut, shhhhhhh, that was not the intent! ;) ;) Thanx for dropping in, ma'am, and have a great week! ;) ;)

This was a great, sad story. Is it true? Thanks for sharing. I am missing the other story you were doing when we first met. Hope you are able to catch my biography soon.
