Crisis and Chaos

by Colleen McCarty-Gould

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is marked by symptoms following exposure to extreme trauma. For loved ones of combat veterans unable to shake the effect of war, the homefront is indeed a battlefield. For many families, the memories of the departure, and all the plans and hopes for tomorrow, are shattered when the loved one returns. He comes home, but he's different. Young people who see or participate in the atrocities of combat do not come out of the experience unscathed. This gripping book brings their plight home.
