Everyday I hope to hear- something / anything. Everyday I get on this site to learn, to read, to feel connected. And, some days it is just so hard - not knowing, no contact.
I want to know what is going on, and then, I don't. It is a strange place to be. I worry every minute, Im proud every minute, Im scared every minute. Im Jeff's Mom. I love him and I love what he is and what he is doing. Im Proud!! I miss him!!
