If things go good, in the sense of me getting this opportunity full time, I do want to return. Unfortunately since I have been here, my company has ordered unpaid furloughs, which means money is even tighter than before.

I'm a Mom...can you tell :) Have you decided whether you will return to Afghanistan during or after the summer months to document the troop surge that we hope and pray will result in positive improvements for the Afghan people and for the world? Thank you for sharing a glimpse of the reality as it stands today.
