Janet J. Seahorn, Ph.D
"Tears of a Warrior" newly released in October 2008.
The authors collaborated in writing their story which is based on Tony's Vietnam military service as a young army officer who served with the Dauntless Black Lions of the 1st Infantry Division until he was wounded & medivaced in December 1968. It is a story written in detail about the experiences & reality of combat, and the subsequent impact on veterans and their families & friends when warriors return home. Janet writes from her perspective of a devoted wife, mother and career educator who has lived the past 30 years with a veteran who suffers from both the physical, and more specifically, mental scars of combat.
Janet has a Ph.D in Human Development, with extensive research in brain development & the impact of combat PTSD.
The book is written so that all veterans, families, friends, and the public in general will better understand the pain and suffering caused by the trauma of battle. We hope and believe the reader will develop a better understanding of living with a combat veteran and the treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Never forget our troops!
