Solid Ground
It’ been a long 9 days – but 9 days is what is has been since we got the harried and frantic call from Aud telling us that Paul – her husband – and our friend had been in a bomb blast and was alive – but seriously wounded.
Since that time – I’ve tried to keep this log up to date, not just for me – but for Paul – who will need to see what went on at home – while he was receiving care in the ‘Ghan – and Germany.
A new friend of Pauls – whom he hasn’t even met – my buddy Lance has also been helping – by creating a media archive of all the newscasts and news reports we could get recorded from the first day on.
Where am I going with this – right…
So – as of sunset today – Paul is home – and in the care of the University hosptial. He has a limited visitation schedule but I’m going to try to get a few hours / minutes with him tomorrow – and will likely post a photo or two – if he’s game. I know the others are still in very serious condition – but I’ll leave their stories to their families. Sal has quite a following online…
So… last of all – this image from the media – the last I’ll repost. (Ok. Unless they are relevant) Now – we look forward. Recovery will be a long road – and I’ve committed to Paul, Aud, Darren, and Simon – that I’ll do everything in my power to help…
Welcome home bud.
