so i thought i would start this, it might be fun who knows? well things are going really well, we just had our 4th child and are recovering as fast as we can from that. Ronald Campbell is his name for you all who haven't heard and i think you should have pics of him now if not e-mail me and i will send them. anyways life in the army is not going well right now, i am in what is called the "warrior in transition unit" which is for those of the army who need to recouperate from an injury or are awaiting a medical discharge, i am the latter. i have been seeing dr's now for almost 2 years and almost had to go back to iraq because my leadership didn't believe me about my injury to my lower back. i have a herniated disc between the l5-s1 of my spin which some dr's think insignificant. well i say what has been causing my left leg to go completely numb while running or even sitting, hearing crackling noises when i rotate my waist, having to take all sorts of meds to controll my pain, to that they just say chronic lower back pain, but i have proof of my hernia so that's all i need. i will find out hopefully in less than 3 months what the army plans to do with me, either medically discharge me with a certain disability raiting, or tell me i am fit for duty and get out in next april anyway. we will see.

i hope i didn't bore you and made some sense inletting you know about my situation. i will write more on the family next time. i am sending out pics of my time in iraq, it's alot i hope you all enjoy them, and if their's any rude language i'm sorry i have no control over what is said while i'm video taping things.
