'Tears of a Warrior' Offers Hope and Healing to Veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Experts estimate that between 25% and 30% of Vietnam veterans who fought in combat have symptoms of PTSD, and it's been recently estimated that 30% of combat soldiers returning from service in Iraq and Afghanistan are experiencing similar trauma. "Tears of a Warrior: A Family's Story of Combat and Living with PTSD" was written to educate families and veterans about the symptoms of PTSD and to offer strategies for living with the disorder. Author Tony Seahorn writes from his experience as a young army officer in Vietnam who was wounded in action and continues to recover from the physical and emotional scars of combat. Janet Seahorn, Tony's wife and co-author, writes from both the perspective of a wife who has lived for thirty years with a veteran with PTSD, and as a professional who's research has focused on the effects PTSD has on the brain, body, and spirit.
