Summary
Tears of a Warrior : A Family's Story of Combat and Living with PTSD
"Tears of a Warrior: A Family's Story of Combat and Living with PTSD" has been our life's journey for the past thirty-some years. We began writing our story several years back simply as a legacy for our two sons. But, with the war in Iraq & Afghanistan and soldiers returning from combat, we realized that there are many others who are living our experience as well. Some certainly have an even more traumatic story than ours. We are sharing our story for the sole purpose of making a difference for others. Tears of a Warrior is written so that all veterans from all wars, regardless of service branch, will benefit by the message. Families and society in general will better understand the horrors of combat. Realizing the trauma of war, we seek to share our experience and provide a message of hope. This story is written to make a difference. "If we send them, then we must mend them."
