End of the blog

Mark left Baghdad early Thursday morning the 10th of May, 2007. He is due to arrive in the States sometime on Saturday the 12th of May.

After 363 days and 448 posts, the blog is now finished. I know everyone is greatly relieved that Mark has made it through his tour of duty in Iraq - it feels like a great weight has been lifted from all of our shoulders. I know I will relish not having to anxiously check the news each morning for details of the latest bombing or attack. And I hope never again to know the temperature in Baghdad on a daily basis.

It will be 105 degrees in Baghdad on Sunday - only 78 in Swansea.

Mark died in February 2010. He’d made it home from Iraq but he couldn’t survive the cancer that followed him.
