Now he is beginnin to face depression and flashbacks from the wars. He said the other day, MOMMA there is just some things I can't talk about and I might not even be able to talk too the doctor about it either. I told him I was here if he decided too talk too me about anything. So can you all pray for him to get himself back to at least close too being back normal again/
Prayers for you and your family your son as you probably know is suffering from PTSD. I had the same situation and even after 10 yrs there's still sights and sounds that can trigger my flashbacks. The good news is he will be able to get through it, its going to be difficult at times but just love him through it. He will need to talk to someone whether its his pastor or other troops suffering through the same thing.
