  • Thanks Mom, for the Lesson I Never Knew You Taught Me

    The photo above shows my mom. Next to her is me, outside one of the planes at my last squadron, soaked in champagne and ice water, with a giant smile. This was part the going away tradition known as a “fini flight” and is an amazing experience that I love and treasure from my time in the Air Force. But what do these images have to do with each oth…read more

    • Hello Bryan,
      It was so nice to read your letter. Your words are so uplifting. I am glad your mother gave you the love and attention all children need. She also seems to have passed on her positive attitude toward life which is a wonderful gift.
      I wish you continued success in all your future endeavors.

      Your cousin,
      Shelley

    Thanks! Because of my past I have very good coping mechanisms and techniques for dealing with a known source of trauma, depression, stress, or anxiety. A lot of it came from counselors during my firefighting days and from family and friends who had been there and done that. But ai was completely at a loss for what do do when the source was unknown.

    • Mental health is so tricky sometimes. Nothing can chance, and suddenly it can hit you all at once. It won’t let me share the link. But put in the search box “To all the people I could not save” His story reminds me quite a bit of yours.

    • Bryan, First of all thank you so very much for your service. This piece is such a testament to your strength and courage.
