    Dear Friends,

    I'm just posting to say hey and that I'm now 3 years NED.  There were days I didn't think I'd get this far, but thanks to God's care and good doctors, I'm in mainland Southeast Asia (mostly Thailand & Cambodia) doing dissertation research. Whowuddathunkit!?!

    I don't post often but as often as I can I read and try and keep up with you all on this board– saddened to hear of a warrior's passing and rejoicing with each clear scan.  You all have been a great source of information and realistic encouragement to me!  I'm grateful!

    Here's wishing NED to you all!

    Blessings

      That is so awesome, Julie! I was just talking to my teenage daughter today about the possibility of being 3 years NED 3 years down the road. At that point, I would begin receiving my military retirement pay and could do some traveling and send my daughter to Japan. It is definitely a goal!! 🙂
