“My daughter and I lost her father and my husband before she was two years old. I knew him since I was 10, and we were married for 10 years. But a prolonged, untreated condition of PTSD ended in the most unfortunate way. I, in turn, now have the PTSD, I battle at it every day, with finding gratitude with the time we had together.. We miss him immensely. And though I am grateful to be able to look in the eyes, so similar to those that used to look at me, it is heartbreaking that he cannot watch her grow.”
