   Well, it looks like one of "those days" where I looked forward to seeing him all day....and am not hearing from him, and he's not answering the phone......I guess that's just how it is.

   Yes he can contact me at anytime for any reason.I am a 57 tear old combat vet from the war in viet-nam. Ihave been fighting this for many years. I have 6 nephews who have fought in the sanbox. You must understand that very few younger vets can admit YET that there might be a probmlem. I do need to ask you tho not to push this on him but a gentle nudge cannot hurt. I am here so are others. Love,Loyalty and Respect MadMichael

   Wow! Thank you soooo much!! Well, then I guess he has won a "part" of the battle....he already knows there is a problem...before he didn't want to "read" anything (a book they sent home with him after returning home from Iraq). So I took it and read it... and 2 days ago, he said it was time for him to quit being stubborn, and wanted to read the book. I had told him about this website before, and he started asking me questions about it. I told him how great the people on here were...and thought he would get a lot more from this, than the book. We even talked about it this morning, and I talked about me maybe finding someone on here that he could relate to, and start that way rather than talk on an open forum. He seemed to like the idea, and I made sure....like you said, not to "push" him into it. Just like I didn't push the book. I figured if he wasn't "ready" to read it...it wouldn't matter if he read it 100 times. He wants to get better very much, and try and get his head in the right place. But he is definitely "not" in denial! Thank God for that!
   His name is John, he's 48, and a SFC in the army. His email is combatseal1@yahoo.com
   Do you have a regular email? or do you want him to use your profile on here?? You have no idea how much this means to me, and I know it will to John as well!!! God Bless You!!!!

   Thank you.....I understand, and I truly am committed to him. I told him I am in it for the long hall, and I will not walk away from him, no matter what! I totally understand if you would rather not....but I posted a note on the forum to find one or two men that would be willing to talk with him via email, one on one....that has been through what he has been and what he's going through now. He's not ready to talk openly on a "forum:" but I know he would do one on one. I don't mean to put you on the spot, and will respect and understand if you can not do that. Thank you so much for your kind words Michael, I truly appreciate it!
