And she wonders if she made the local paper.

"We're just kind of letting her take her time," her father, Greg Lynch, told reporters Tuesday at Landstuhl medical center in Germany, where her family has flown to help her recover from 10 days of harrowing captivity.

Sounds like she's got a really great family. May God bless them all.

What I'm wondering now is, if she isn't really talking about it or doesn't seem to have a memory of it at this point (at least according to the individual quoted here), where did the story of emptying her weapon and killing Iraqis come from? Does anyone know?

This whole media circus, not to mention the sudden flight to Germany and back (and more media) just adds to their already huge stress load.

It sounds like Jessica, the miltary and the family are solidly together in their appropriate refusal to give any details.

Besides, no pressure on Jessica is good common-sense therapy.

Life is good.

Well, Senator Kerrey's wife's heart is in the right place, even if HE has his head up his anal orifice.

I really hope the media latches on to something else before much longer. This young lady deserves to get on with her recovery and the rest of her life without being in the glare of the spotlight. Let the Army and her hometown recognize her. The rest of us should leave her and her family alone.

A tune runs through her head, "Country roads, take me home, to the place, I belong,...." You can take the boy or girl out of West Virginia but you can't take West Virginia out of the girl or boy.

Said her father: "She just wants to go home."

AMEN...LET HER GO HOME AND ENJOY LIFE...THANKYOU JESSICA FOR YOUR LOVE FOR FREEDOM AND LIBERTY...

I am quite certain Walter Reed is not "home". I pray that the Lord gets her home at the earlliest possible time.

The leftist elite sneers at "flyover" country families like hers. They are the salt of the earth, and I'd rather have a beer with them than a cocktail with the "enlightened" ones.

Former POW Jessica Lynch No Longer in Intensive Care, Doctors Say
The Associated Press
Published: Apr 9, 2003

LANDSTUHL, Germany (AP) - Rescued U.S. POW Jessica Lynch was moved out of intensive care at a military hospital in Germany on Wednesday and is spending more time talking with her family as she recovers.
Lynch, a 19-year-old Army private first class from Palestine, W.Va., was captured March 23 after her 507th Maintenance Company convoy was ambushed in the southern Iraqi city of Nasiriyah. She was rescued from a hospital in the city April 1 by U.S. commandos and airlifted to Germany.

She was moved from intensive care to a regular medical ward Wednesday morning and ate a breakfast of pancakes and strawberries, said Capt. Norris Jones, a spokesman for the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center.

Doctors say she may be well enough by week's end to be released.

Lynch is being treated for a head wound, an injury to her spine and fractures to her right arm, both legs, and her right foot and ankle.
