His name is Chris and he comes from a line of Military men. His 2 brothers and friends are all in the Army and his sister’s husband is also. He married my other friend Alissa, who also comes from a military family. Chris found out he was being shipped to Iraq, where he would serve as a nurse in Baghdad. One month into his 14 month tour, he found out Alissa was pregnant. Conceived the night before he left!
7 months (halfway) into his tour, the hospital he worked at in Baghdad got a new CT scanner. They needed a volunteer to scan so they could show the doctors how to use it. Chris volunteered. As they were reviewing the results, they found an enlarged artery in his brain. He showed no signs. That night he was rushed to Germany and back to the States the next day. He underwent 4 surgeries to block / remove the artery and they all went smoothly. A month and a half later, his wife had a healthy baby boy...born July 4th, 2006!
More to this but I am cut short with 1000 letters.
