This is a story of the human spirit overcoming the ravages of a brain altered by horrible, traumatic experiences. With the help of his equine therapy horse, Johnny has learned to live again. Now, he seeks to find a way to help other veterans learn how to live happy and productive lives after being left helpless by their experiences in war. The outcome is a story of how a man driven to help others creates a place where veterans, severely mentally disturbed with PTSD, can recover. Here they can find their way back from horrible circumstances to living their lives again. Each veteran's war story is different as is the manifestation of their post-traumatic mind. Every veteran in the story requires a different approach but all in a supportive and therapeutic environment that Johnny creates. Hopefully, this story provides a blueprint for caring for our veterans who return with invisible wounds that too often destroy their lives. It is a story of the drama and pain endured by these victims of PTSD and one of hope as they learn to live positive lives again.
Autorenporträt
As a business executive, M. C. Combs owned her own company for fifteen years and then led several other companies in her career. Shortly after retiring, and with a friend's son, a military physician, suffering severely with PTSD, she began trying to help him after all the usual therapies had failed. She discovered an equine therapy facility with an excellent track record with PTSD victims. Before he could try this very effective program, the depression overcame him, and he took his life. After that event she initiated extensive research into that awful condition and the available resources to help those who suffer with it. She became determined to be a positive force in helping people to understand and find solutions for our service men and woman who suffer with PTSD. A story of 'what might have been' had her friend lived became the first book, Darby, the Horse from HOPE. Now, she is actively working on proactive solutions. This second book, which is a sequel but also a standalone story, presents one type of solution and hopefully greater understanding of the needs of our veterans who suffer with PTSD.
