Luke and Our Lady

I had quite a chat with Luke tonight. He told me about the day he was injured. I don't know all the details except that he was knocked out and when he came to he went into a "situation" and rescued one of the other soldiers. He was awarded a medal for that.

I asked him what day the attack happened and he told me the morning of Jan. 5, 2010. Out of curiosity I looked at what I had posted that day on the blog.



My mouth hung open when I saw an entry commenting on a statue that Tara had received from her friend. It was Our Lady of Sorrows.

Before I knew of the "incident" with the IED I had placed a statue of Our Lady next to Luke's official military photo and consecrated him to her loving care. Looks like my timing was good. I am too stunned to say anymore.
