Simone Gorrindo writes in an easy, flowing style as she begins the story of what would be a difficult time in a young wife’s life. It would be hard to watch your husband leave knowing he was going into harm’s way as he was deployed to fight in another country. At this time, women definitely need the friendship and support of others who understand and are going through the same thing. It sounds like the wives surrounding Simone will take care of each other.
