I saw "Jordan strikes back" on the news during lunch. It made me think about you. I popped on here and read your post. Much love to you! Keep safe!

Hey- I'm really sorry to hear about this. I can relate in that I'm not too much of an emotional person but reading this post made me really sad. I'm sorry you lost a friend like that (and someone died before they even got to have an experience over there)

You really are a soldier in our field. The world really needs more people like you and Lexie.

Keep safe, lady.
