Hi Cecelia! It is nice to have someone so close. I am sorry about the loss of your son. That must have been such a difficult time for you and I am sure it still is. Japan is definitely one of the places my son would love to go to. I am sure we are in this for a long time as I can see him making a career out of the Navy. He signed on for 6 years to start with.

Cecilia, I can't recall which travel search engine gave me the lowest fares, but I generally use Cheapflights.com, Travelocity, Hotwire and Priceline. This time I believe I also used a travel search engine specifically for military personnel called http://www.militaryfares.com. Best of luck!!

Hi Ceceilia,
I decided to visit your site. Very loving. As I have said many times - just go to the sites and share. Then someone hears and you get a key to open a door to your problem. You stated that you think I am a good person for caring for my mother. Have you looked in the mirror lately? There is a fantasitc lady there - I read about her on this site. I also,read about your loss of a son. Sorry. Trying to find words to let you know I care. But all I can think of is: Sending a big hug.. Hope you can feel it. talk when you like :) I'll listen T'Lynn
