[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there is some leeway in the terminology. There is a woman down the street whose husband is away at sea for 6-8 month deployments at a time. I don't think she can even contact him via text or phone. She may be married but it sure does seem to me that she is a "single mom" when her husband is away and she is fully responsible for the safety, health and care of their kids. I can't remember what the specific form is called but we are her back-up for the kids if there is a national emergency and she can't get to them because of her job, which is also military. She literally cried when we agreed to do it and then got all the legal forms notarized. We were not super-close at the time but they were new to the area and had no one local to turn to. [/quote] You did a good thing. It probably took a lot of courage and/embarrassment to ask and it's great to help her (I'm not really a patriot but I'd say our country too if I felt that way).[/quote]
