Please pray for my sister and her 2 sons (ages 20 and 24). My brother-in-law died this morning at the very young age of 51.    He's been sick for a while with complications from cancer and diabetes but it was still unexpected.

My oldest son and I are flying home to Northern Virginia on Thursday to be with my family. Please also pray for safe travel for us and my dh and 2 kids left at home. This will be the first time I've left Hannah since we adopted her last October. I'm a little worried about that, too.

Unfortunately, we cannot afford for all of us to go home. This is exactly the reason I CAN'T WAIT for my dh to retire from the Air Force in 19 MONTHS so we can move closer to family!!! Sorry for the CAPS but this is so frustrating.

Thanks for the prayers friends.

Lisa, I'm sorry to hear your sad news. I completely understand your frustration with this aspect of military life (distance in times of need).
