US-Veteran-Daughter-PTSD -- By Moni Basu
Inside a trailer in Honaker, Virginia, is a 5-year-old girl who loves lemon-lime slush. She sleeps in a room with a quilted bedspread and matching purple curtains. She adores her cat Tiger, dogs Smoky and Rusty and a black, pop-eyed goldfish. Her family is poor, and she is eating potted meat, blowing away cracker crumbs that fall into her lap. "Daddy," she whispers when her father, a welder, comes home. He does not respond. His eyes are wild. He collapses into a rocking chair, his hands trembling, his breathing labored. She doesn't understand her father's strange behavior. It's as though he's in the grip of the devil. She hides behind the couch, her knees press against the shag carpeting. Later, she will remember this moment as the first time she was afraid of her father.
