THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT: Practicing my digital collages

ABOUT ME!

Hey Ya'll! My name is Morgan Klein and my husband is a Disabled Iraq Veteran with PTSD. By being his caregiver 24/7 and with the challenges of his PTSD I am always looking for ways to understand what he might be thinking or feeling (I know I will never truly know), so I can better help him through his bad days.Aaron was injured multiple times throughout his tour during Operation Iraqi Freedom from June 2006-Sept 2007. Aaron has been diagnosed with High-Risk PTSD with ETOH, Depression, major hearing loss, back injury, panic/anxiety attacks. Aaron's VA claim took 2 years to complete and start to receive benefits. Let me says that the past 5 years have been a whirlwind of ups and downs, but he and I made it through. He is rated 100% service-connected disabled. He work multiple jobs over the past 5 years until we started receiving benefits in January 2013. He is now home 24/7 and I work when I can. We have 5 gorgeous daughters ranging from 12-3 years old. Every day is a challenge in its self. Girls fighting, appointments, work, Aaron's tough days, dropoff/pickups, etc. I won't change it for anything though. Aaron asks why do I stay and I reply with 'Because this is where I am meant to be.' I am starting to get more involved with veteran sites especially concerning with PTSD and spouses. What a tough job it is but through the good and the bad days there is nowhere else I want to be.
