HCW~Help us get his story out

Son. Marine. PTSD. It is too painful to say much more. He went to Iraq twice. Will not communicate with me. The situation at hand happens much more than anyone can know.

If women ran the world, there would be no war.

You are in my prayers!!!

You and your son are in my prayers as well.

Kathkeane~ Thank you for sharing that with us. I understand what you are going through.

That is why, we are working so hard to get Coleman's story out. These men and women need someone to fight for them. They have fought for us, now it's our turn to fight for them.

There was a story about this in the Los Angeles Times today. "For parents, their own trauma" It also had a link to "Ryan's journey" See an audio slideshow about Sgt. Ryan Kahlor and his physical and emotional recovery after two tours of duty in Iraq. For a soldier's parents, their own post-trauma - Los Angeles Times

Thank you very much for sharing that with us. Sadly, it is way to common for these soldiers. I hope that everyone that looks here, takes a look at that article as well. Again, thank you for sharing that!

I can only hope that we can get our soldiers the help that they need, before it's to late.

This is so sad. Courtney, I'm so sorry about your friend. It's hard to imagine that someone my age could already have been through multiple deployments in Iraq.

So much as happened since I last posted here. Coleman's family never stopped pushing to get help for our servicemen, women and Vets. This family took this horrific tragedy and helped to turn it into some thing to hopefully keep others from Coleman's fate. They are such an inspiration to me. Please read the article that I have linked.
