Hi I'm Melissa aka Mel - the best way to describe myself is a military wife and proud mommy to a beautiful 10 year old son, as well a mommy to a angel that grew wings in Aug. 2006. ~If You Don’t Stand Behind Our Troops, Feel Free To Stand In Front Of Them!~ Hugs Mel

  • In regards to Compassionate Reassignment for Army?

    I was hoping someone had the regulation or answer to this question. Recently my husband and I received a Compassionate Reassignment Orders from Germany back to the states (due to the death of our son). Currently my husband is in processing at our new duty station but the unit they are placing with him recently deployed. Does the Compassionate Reassignment stop him from joining him?

    Thanks and ton of hugs Mel

  • What to say when someone you knows has just suffered from a miscarriage..?

    Recently someone decided that it would be fun to poke mockery (on Yahoo Answers) of the death of our son, Zachary that we tragically lost on Aug. 2, 2006 (second trimester loss), to see the post go here http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

    I thought it would be important to post what to say to someone who has endured the pain of a miscarriage..

    Things you should say

    Do call her and tell her you are sorry for her loss.

    Do send her a card or flowers to show you care

    Do let her talk as much as she needs to or wants to.

    Do give her a hug to let her know you care.

    Do offer to help with housework, babysitting or other things that she may not feel up to doing.

    Do acknowledge her baby.

    It is okay to say I don’t know what to say or I don’t know how to help.

    Do call and check up on her. The pain does not go away in a couple days.

    So with that posted what else do you think would be appropiate?

  • Why do people have to judge ..?

    I don't feel like I should have to post a response to this .. but some people are very judgemental on this board or try to hurt others. I have attempted to be honest with all my answers to questions here. But only to be disrespected to what I am going through with the death of my son.

    SO here is the deal .. during a routine ob/gyn appt on Aug 2 I found out that my son had past away (in our 2nd trimester). I had to endure the pain of knowing that my son is gone, go through over 27 hours of labor and leaving a maternity ward empty handed. Every day I cry and I grieve.. I am going through huge emotional depression. So what if I have a comment by name that says in loving memory - isn't that my right? SO for the people who judge - I am no longer going to post or come to this site.

    Have a wonderful life.. I hope you all find happiness.

    If you want to see the post ..
