[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 176061, member: 1514"] I so remember exactly what you are feeling right this very minute. Boot/Basic was extremely hard for us to get through. I wrote letters daily and when they said we could send care packages, I sent those. We were only allowed to send gatorade, beef jerky and cough drops so I sent a ton of those...lol. I think the Army is a little more lenient and you will be allowed phone calls from her on weekends but even so, start writing those motivational letters to her. Where is she doing basic? I think most females go to Fort Leonardwood. Thats not a bad place...Jamie did his MP training there. Have you found the website for Army moms yet? I would look into that because they will be a good source of support during her tour. Also go to the recruiter and get your stickers for your car...lol. You will make it through this. It is so hard...I know. Start counting down the days until her graduation and make the plans to go see it. Then make the plans for her leave...those are the things that kept me going. You go from one date to the next and count down. [/QUOTE]
