| Publisher Description: "I had just started thinking that it was strange that ours were the only vehicles on the road, because it was normally a very busy highway. Then we got hit. I was told later we had run over an IED (improvised explosive device). When it happened, I didn't feel any pain. All I saw was how bright everything was, and I remember thinking things but I couldn't get them out. I couldn't move. My ears were ringing and I kept thinking, 'No way did that just happen. Holy shit, I just died in Iraq.'"That moment on August 12, 2003 changed the life of Patrick Strobel and his family forever. It was the day he credits for launching his own personal war with PTSD - a battle in which he is still engaged today. Join Patrick as he tells his story, and encourages other veterans with PTSD to seek the help they need to readjust to life as a civilian - one who has been damaged by the trauma of war.Praise for Wars End With MeShari Berg has accomplished something wonderful with this book.
