The Day After He Left For Iraq - A Tale of Love, Loss, and Bravery
War often separates loved ones, leaving behind a void that can't be filled until they return home. This is the story of one such separation, how it affected two individuals, and the struggles they faced every day while being apart. The day after he left for Iraq, their lives changed forever.
The Sweetest Goodbye
As the sun began to set on the picturesque town, Sarah watched her husband, David, preparing for his departure. The mixed emotions they felt were palpable – pride in his bravery and love for his country, but also fear for the unknown, and the uncertainty of when they would see each other again. They held each other tightly, cherishing every last moment together, and as they said their goodbyes, Sarah couldn't help but wonder what tomorrow would bring.
A Phone Call That Changed Everything
The ringing phone broke the silence in Sarah's house the next day. Her heart raced as she rushed to answer it, hoping for news from David. On the other end was a military officer, calmly informing her that David's unit had been deployed and was heading into the heart of Iraq. The gravity of the situation hit Sarah like a ton of bricks. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt a mix of pride for David's selflessness and overwhelming anxiety for his safety.

Loneliness and Coping Mechanisms
Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months. Sarah had never felt so alone. Every minor occurrence would remind her of David – his laughter, his touch, his scent. She missed their long walks in the park, their late-night talks, and the simple joys of everyday life. To cope with the solitude and to keep herself distracted, Sarah immersed herself in her work, volunteering at local charities, and spending time with family and friends. But the pain of his absence was always there, lingering in her heart.
The Power of Love and Letters
Amidst the chaos and the uncertainty, Sarah and David found solace in handwritten letters. David, confined to the desert with limited communication options, poured his heart out onto paper. He shared his experiences, his fears, and his hopes for the future. Sarah eagerly awaited every letter, and with each one, her love for him grew stronger. The letters became the thread that connected their souls across the vast expanse of distance.
The News That Broke Them
After a year of living through the highs and lows of separation, Sarah received news that would forever change their lives. She received a visit from military officers who solemnly informed her that David had been injured in the line of duty. Panic surged through her veins as they spoke of his critical condition and the urgent need for her presence by his side. Sarah felt her world shatter into a million pieces, but her love for David gave her the strength to face what was to come.
The Long Road to Recovery
The journey to Iraq was filled with apprehension and a heavy heart. Sarah's mind was flooded with memories of their time together, both the beautiful ones and the difficult ones. As she arrived at the hospital, she was met with the sight of her husband lying motionless, surrounded by doctors and nurses fighting to save his life. Her heart sank, but her unwavering faith in his strength kept her going.
The Triumph of Love
Days turned into weeks, then months, and Sarah never left David's side. She witnessed his struggle and endured sleepless nights filled with worry. Slowly but surely, David began to recover. His journey was a constant battle, but the love he shared with Sarah became his motivation for pushing forward. Their bond blossomed in the face of adversity, stronger than ever before.
The Joy of Reunion
Finally, the day arrived when David was discharged from the hospital. The moment Sarah laid eyes on him, tears of joy streamed down her face. The long months of separation, the fear, and the pain were all worth it for this moment. Their embrace was a testament to the strength of their love and the power of resilience.
The day after he left for Iraq was the beginning of a harrowing journey for Sarah, filled with loneliness, uncertainty, and heartache. But it was also a journey that demonstrated the power of love, sacrifice, and the triumph of the human spirit. Sarah and David's story is a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals and the strength that love provides even in the darkest of times.

The emotional true story of a family separated by war. We feel for the men and women who are risking their lives at war, but what of the families they’ve left behind? In gorgeous prose, a military wife describes a year in her family’s life?a year in which her husband leaves for war and returns, and prepares again to leave. Melissa Seligman’s son is a newborn, and her daughter, a toddler, when her husband ships out to Iraq. Starting with that day, and focusing on the months that follow, she movingly describes the balancing act her life has become: being a loving mother to her young children, with the haunting knowledge that her husband, their father, could be killed at any time. Seligman doesn’t hesitate to express her inner pain. She watches her daughter acting out in fury. Then there’s her own anger. Ultimately, though, she comes to accept her life and appreciate the strength and determination of her loving children and husband. It’s a book to read in one sitting, and to think about for years.Skyhorse Publishing, along with our Arcade, Good Books, Sports Publishing, and Yucca imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs.
