Healing from war's devastating effects isn't easy--but it is possible.For every wounded warrior, there is a wounded home--a family and community impacted by their loved one's war experiences. Service members returning from combat deployment all bring war home with them. And when a combat veteran struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or traumatic brain injury (TBI), every family member experiences the effects--confusion, hurt, anger, guilt, fatigue, and fear. Wounded Warrior, Wounded Home offers a hope-filled way forward, giving hurting families a look inside the minds and hearts of combat veterans and guiding them to develop their own plan for physical, emotional, and spiritual wholeness."No family, not even a military one, is ever prepared for the holes that war and conflict punch out of our loved ones.
