Recovery did NOT end for me the day I had been released from the hospital after living through a suicide bomber attack in the Afghanistan war zone that took the lives of 5 of my absolutely outstanding teammates, 2 Afghan partners and had severely injured me. Recovery is a process that involves healing not only your body, but your spirit while accepting the past and determining your new path to making a difference in the lives of your stateside community and worldwide. On this page, I will track me finding my green zone while on my Road to Recovery. I would love to hear your thoughts and receive your messages! The goal of this page is to be a positive resource for other wounded warriors, their family members supporting them and for others who endure PTSD, a Traumatic Brain Injury and/or additional injuries who are on their own journey to recover and rebuild even stronger.
*One more thing: It was an HONOR to serve in Afghanistan as a Soldier in the Army (2003-2004) AND as a Diplomat (2012-2013).
