HEARTACHE AND HOPE IN ONE VETERAN FAMILY
b6dd6a9b-6d1d-4df3-a535-54572b2fb83e.jpg
I received the below via text recently from a veteran about her spouse who also serves.

“Shelly, this is so hard to write. Our household has been…less than our best over the past couple of months. My husband has been battling a lot of inner demons, some I knew about and some I did not. It came to a breaking point a couple of weeks ago and I told him he had to call the base medical group and ask for help…which I’m sure you know is a major taboo in the military culture…everyone is afraid of what it will do to their careers. But, he called.”

My heart skipped a beat. Then I got to the last two words of the first paragraph. He called.

I took a deep breath; a sigh of relief. Pride, fear and stigma were overcome and the “right” steps were taken to seek help. I took another breath…the tension that was just released crept back in as I read the remainder of the text.
