Post Please Pray for my son...

I know I was so excited that he graduated this weekend, but now he has to get back home from Orlando via moving truck, towing car. I'm scared to death...with all the cell services out...he's by himself. He can't stay in Orlando...his lease was up...he'll stop in Pensacola at my daughter's, but from there it's going to be a maze to get here. Then he has to report to work in Baton Rouge on the 12th. I know with all that's going on, this seems minimal and trivial...just not to a mom. Please forgive me if this seems selfish.

It doesn't sound selfish it all. It's a sweet example of a mother's love for her child.

I'll keep your son in my thoughts, and I hope he has a completely safe journey.

Awww, bless his heart, and yours. He will be fine, mom! You're not being selfish at all. Prayers will be said for him!

That's not selfish at all! I can imagine that you would be worried about him. I'm sure he'll be fine but it is the way of mothers to worry and be concerned; that's what makes them special.

I'm sure he'll be fine - it's normal for you to be worried! And he'll be in my prayers

I think your feelings are completely normal. All the best to him and I'll definitely keep you both in my thoughts.
