I live at Fort Hood. Today has been.. I have no words. We have been given the all clear after 3 hours of lock down. I don't think the sound of that siren is ever going to escape my memory. I guess there is no real point to this. Just.. Hug your babies tonight. I am so lucky today. As you know, i am still battling health issues, so i had several appointments today and because i can't drive (i pass out, so it's illegal for me to hold a license) so my husband had to take me. If he hadn't been with me, he would have been in that building. If i wasn't sick, i might have never seen him again after today. I am so lucky. And i am shaken to my core. Tomorrow we'll be told the full scope of the damage, tomorrow we'll be told who we lost, and why, and tomorrow it will take every ounce of strength that i have to let my husband leave for work. I could have lost him, but i didn't.. But there are women who can't say the same. There will be memorials, and funds, charities in their names.. But as a wife.. As a mother.. How do you ever breathe again?
