7-yr war.....life-long devestation

http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/02/10/nyregion/0210-PARENT_12.html

This slide show was taken from the NY Times. A compilation of 13 pictures and captions help to tell the lives of 2 mothers who are dedicated to caring for their sons, who were bothed injured in the war in Iraq. All taken in the hospital room of each son, the inclusion of hospital equipment and staff helps to add to the reality of this specific life-style. Although it was a bit distracting to go from caption to photo, the photos were able to relay the effort needed to care for people who are unable to care for themselves. I liked this slideshow because it dealt with its subject in a different manner. Instead of including photos of deep emotion and stress, the photos showed both mothers living their lives in adaptation to each of their son's injuries.
