After about 3 weeks of quarantine and confident in camp, thanks a series of poorly implemented measures to initially, contain the spread of H1N1, and then subsequently, to prevent stationed troops from being exposed to H1N1, I’m home again.
It wasn’t a pleasant experience, but it was during these hours that I realized how important my friends and family were to me. My parents brought me supplies to ease the difficulty of staying away for such a long period, and the few friends that I had helped kept my spirits up. I’d especially like to thank these people: my mom and dad, Giada, Stephanie, Brenda and Jade for all the support they have given. I wouldn’t know what to do without you folks. Also special thanks to my bunkmate, Daniel and Marcus, for helping me make light of the whole situation.
