Hi there, I am sorry to say I don't remember what happened to your daughter...but I assume that she did graduate from boot camp? Please keep us posted on how she is doing...if she needs encouragement...please let us know and we will flood her with...
This may have been in 08 but another mom told me to read this. I am now done, in tears and think your family is something else. I am so PROUD of her and don't even know her. Maybe she could do inspiration talks to kids. WOW
Thanks for the heads-up on taking it slow. It sounded like two weeks was an awfully short period of time for this type of injury. Please do keep praying. I will be writing her today and I will ask her if she knows Cass. There is another girl in th...
G,
I am so happy to hear Cass is healing well, and keeping very busy. Wishing her a speedy recovery so she can move on to A school. Please tell her, we are proud of her! Take care and God Bless.
Hi Everyone,
Well we made it past the PIR date. It was very difficult week on her but she's putting it behind her. She was very proud of her unit but glad they are gone so it doesn't weigh on her as much.
She is holding up better than me, I am not...

Profile Information
- About me:
- I am just me and proud of it, ever changing/growing/learning and living my life. I have learned to appreciate others for their individual and unique qualities and enjoy personalities. My family is my life. I have been married 19 years to my best friend, and our only daughter is 18 and currently in boot camp. I am a respected professional woman, and still love my biker wild side. Please call me G.
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Son/Daughter
- Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
- Enlisted
- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Needed to learn more about it
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- Give them as much encouragement and support possible. She fought her way through 3 DQ's for abdominal surgery at birth and refused to give up. We supported her every effort all the way up to the top national levels. It was hard and discouraging and frustrating, but she's fought hard and Her Medical Waiver was approved. After almost a year in the DEP program she entered boot camp 9-9-09. The DEP program was a great start, we got to be involved as she began her journey and it has made this difficult transition a little more bearable.
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- Our relationship has grown stronger

Sherry James said… - Hi G,
Your daughter Cassandra sounds like a remarkable young lady that you and your family must be really proud of her achievements. Thankful she did not give up on the medical waiver and I can relate to this from my daugher's experience.
Both of our daughters are fighters and that drive will come in handy as they suceed in the US Navy. Hope to hear from you soon. Sherry

Michelle (EOD Mom) said… - Welcome to DEPPER's...I hope that this group can offer support and a place
to vent, cry, laugh and brag.
Please feel free to reply to one of our discussions
or start one of your own.
Questions about DEP are most defiantly welcome.
A question that you have may be a question that someone else has
but just hasn’t ask yet.
What we don’t know we will find out!
