Naval Hospital Guam

Welcome to Naval Hospital Guam!
We are located in paradise 2 hours west of the International Date Line. We are 15 hours ahead of the East Coast, 18 hours ahead of the West Coast, and 20 hours ahead of Hawaii. Guam is truly where "America's Day Begins". We offer a full range of medical, surgical, and operational medicine services. The staff is approximately 650 military and civilian personnel.

Patrick's orders are in!!

He just e-mailed with no details other than to say he is going to Guam and he is excited! We should know more tonight. I just had to post in case someone was perusing the site. Where is Guam? It is way past Hawaii before you get to Japan and above Australia! A long way away!

Last test today!!

Today is Patrick's last test for class. He starts labs and clinicals next week! Hard to believe. I must make a correction....I said graduation was August 4th when I knew full well it is the 8th. Silly Mom.

Patrick's 19th birthday is July 23rd and will of course be his first birthday away from home. I would love for him to receive lots of cards for his special day. If you don't have his correct address...PLEASE e-mail me to make sure he gets the cards.

He will celebrate his birthday by jumping out of an airplane! Yep, he is going skydiving. His dad did it for his 18th birthday so it must run in the male genes. LOL Maybe next Saturday July 19th you can say a prayer for him and me! We told him to stay away from the Brier patch and the land on his feet!!!

Hugs to everyone

The Countdown!

Happy 4th of July America!

Tomorrow marks 1 month until Patrick graduates from Corps School. Hard to believe but August 4th is the date. Next week is his last week of class and then he has 2 wks of clinical's. He is very excited about that.

His orders should be coming anytime now. Patrick put in for overseas (2 yr. tour). He is hoping for Italy or Spain. My mom has always said "just give the boy a passport and a little cash and he is good to go!" :o) I will keep you posted. Start saving you money now. I told him we were ALL coming to see him wherever he ended up! LOL

Have a safe and happy 4th!
Blessings
