CA Dispatcher's Son Injured in Iraq

Cotati Police Dispatcher Kim Kiernan got the news that her son Cpl Steven Kiernan was injured in Iraq. He is currently at a hospital in Bethesday Maryland. As a result of the roadside bomb, Steven lost one foot, and the other leg just above his knee.

If anyone has experience with a similar event, they could use a mentor with travel funding ideas, housing in Maryland and emotional support. The contact person at Cotati is Kirsten Ott.
