A message from MOH recipients

Just sharing this with you in the event you know a veteran suffering from PTSD.

No politics, please.

A very worthy cause. I know my uncle dealt with some heady issues before he finally sought help (admitting that he needed help didn't come easily!). Some good friends' son, an Afghanistan/Iraq vet, is having a real tough time now, even with help, and it's very sad to see.

Excellent cause !! Most in the community have no idea about PTSD until it hits some one close to them!!
You dont have to be a Veteran (capital letter because they deserve the recognition!!) to get it either. I know a school teacher who was seriously assaulted twice, no support from their school, ended up with it, destroyed them for several years & took several more to get back on their feet!!

No decent member of this forum would try & hijack it with politics!!! Its just too serious & important!!!
