Brian Hurt but not Seriously in Iraq ****New Update Post #45*****

[Cinder & Smoke]

Christy got a call from Brian yesterday that he had been injured in a car bombing near the gate at his base.

We are very, very glad he wasn't seriously hurt,
but I am asking for continued prayers for both Brian and Christy and the kids.

Background:

Sgt. Brian, a US Army Vehicle Mechanic, is serving on his Second Tour in Iraq.
He's the Hubby of PT's Christy, the younger daughter of "Mom" (4-5-6 Dog Mom)
and Carl; and he's the Brother-in-Law of Amy (Cincy's Mom).
Brian's two Kids, Jasmine and Dominic, are often featured on the Findlay Gathurin threads,
as well as Diana's reports from the Family Zoo.

Let's all gather around this Pet Talk and Military family and offer some Prayers for Brian
and support for his Family.

THANKS!

Hey Brian ~
Please Feel Better SOON, and come HOME as quick as you can!

Christy was able to talk to Brian for a few minutes this afternoon. He is being sent for x-rays to see if there is anything remaining in his back. He was feeling pretty tired and "beat up". And I think he was having some flashbacks because he said he couldn't stand to be in his room where he could do too much thinking.

I feel sorry for him and all the others who have gone through such bad situations especially those more seriously wounded and who can't be with their families. And of course, prayers go out for the soldier who was killed and his family. There was an incident at the base last week where 3 soldiers were shot and killed - one of them was a friend of Brian's. Their families are also being prayed for. Brian has almost 6 months left - I know for Christy that especially now that seems like forever. Brian's brother left today for his 15 month tour in Iraq. They were here a couple of weeks ago when Brian was home on leave since it will be awhile before the brothers see each other again.

How frightening. I'm glad he wasn't more seriously injured, but still I imagine he's in a lot of pain. What an awful thing to go through. I'll be keeping him and everyone in your family in my thoughts.

At least they were able to speak to each other again and, hopefully, that was comforting to them both. We'll keep the prayers going always.....

How's Pet Talk's Sarge doing?

Has he been given some time off to heal & recover, or is he back on
full-duty again?

Tell him we're all thinking of him - and wish him a safe tour!
