War Diaries: 'Holly'

Holly is a journalism student in New York City. She says her brother is doing the kind of work that puts him in a lot of danger... and to stay connected to him, she stays tethered to the TV news. She says her loyalty to him has brought some sudden changes in her life. Because of the nature of her brother's work, Holly asked that her last name not be used.
