				<description><![CDATA[Hello,
I wanted to start out by saying I love listening to the radio station especially this time of year. It warms my heart to hear people helping people not because they know them but because they care:
I have struggled with mental illness most of my life PTSD, anxiety/ Panic attacks and sever clinical depression. Although I am getting help with medication and counseling it is a battle every day to stay alive and be positive for my three beautiful daughters. 
I was attacked in my own home in 2005 beat and sexually assaulted, I lost my job and home because I couldn't pay the bills, I have since had other jobs but with the panic disorder and PTSD nothing has lasted I have applied for social security but get denied every time because my illness isn't considered enough, I was working earlier this year but got injured with a fracture in my ankle which caused me to get laid off once again,I am struggling to keep a warm place for my children to stay and food on the table. 
I try my best to make any holiday or birthday special but it is harder and harder, I am not able to give my girls a good holiday with gifts and possessions, I only hope they understand that the gift of family and love will be enough to make them happy. I am not wishing for anything for myself I just want my children to have at least one gift under the tree;
You see my husband was laid off work as a mechanic he was getting unemployment which has run out, We have had problems due to money issues that make us be separated at times, We try to be a family but if we are together we cant be helped by government agencies and if we are apart we lose our family as a whole.  No matter what we all lose. I feel guilty because I am not able to help my family stay together, I am stricken with these mental issues that are so taboo and are looked at like they are not a real illness, I have attempted suicide more times then I can count, I had been successful a couple time, but hospital staff has brought me back to life on several occasions. I am staying strong for my family now but wish this illness was more understood and looked at with more compassion by others.
I understand you all have such requests this time of year and understand if me and my family can't be helped, it just feels good to me that I was able to open up on some level about the struggles alot of families are having this time of year, and with the failing economy and the struggles some have with mental illness and certain disorders.
I thank you for your time and even if we cant be assisted this time, I want to wish everyone a happy blessed holiday and everyday.
Thank you for your time.

				<description><![CDATA[This is a story about Oso the pup and her soldier, Phillip.  Phillip is currently deployed with the 5-2 Stryker Brigade to Afghanistan for 1 year and will return home in July 2010. He's been caring for Oso since she was about 5-6 weeks old.

She was saved from certain death when they found her in the mountains wandering, crying and alone with 2 other litter mates, with no mother to be found. So they took her back to the base and divided the pups up to people who were willing to help. He took her in, shared his meals with her, built her a dog house and made her part of their "pack". When he moved to a new base she was smuggled on board for the long trip to her latest home.

She is doing well, but Phil has been told that if the wrong person spots the dog on base she will be taken from him and shot. It's very common for dogs to be used for fighting, torture, and abused beyond belief in Afghanistan! It's hard to imagine doing this to a sweet pup who has only brought pure, unconditional love to the soldiers in Phil's unit during a time of war. She symbolizes a piece of home that the soldiers long for and miss so much. We owe it to her to make sure her journey has a happy ending.

Please help support Oso's cause by featuring her story and spreading the word to others about getting her out of Afghanistan.  If she has to be left behind they will have to euthanize her.  It's an unthinkable thought but one that is humane in the living situation there in Afghanistan. 

Please help by putting our story on the news and assisting others in making a donation to help in the costs involved in her trip to the US. We've been told it will cost between $2500-$5000 US dollars for vaccines, rabies testing, transportation to a shelter by a local Afghan (very dangerous/unpredictable), from there shipping costs to the US east coast and then across the US to Seattle, WA.  I would also like to mention that there are only a few organizations in Afghanistan that try to help get the animals home with their soldiers and they are amazing!  These people risk their lives to save the lives of the animals there.

On behalf of Oso the pup and the Bourrillion family we want to thank you for any help you can give.  God bless you for your kindness and generosity.  Below is a link to her donation site and facebook page:
