3. I Can't Take Much More My Son Just Enlisted 2 Weeks Ago

He is starting boot camp at MCRD San Diego, then he goes to basic at Camp Pendelton.....after that we all know where he is going don't we?

I haven't slept, I am smoking like a chimney and I don't even smoke, and if I didn't have my toddler to chase after I'd probably stay bombed 24/7 until this nightmare is over.

Don't ask why he joined I tried to explain it here a week ago and I felt a bit like I was under attack, he is an adult albeit a very foolish one, and I could not talk him out of it.

God help Benjamin.
