Hubby went back to work (a cop) yesterday after 15 mos off...
(they made him)
I'm concerned: How will the other officers act towards him?
Will his anxiety level rise or be managable?
What will the nature of the calls do to his PTSD symptoms?
(tis the season for domestic violence & dead bodies...)
I know him: he'll act like everything's okay (but inside his head he may be fighting a battle). And, of course, when he gets home he'll say it was the SOS (same old sh*t).
I feel for him; but I can't help him (he won't let me) & I can't do it for him (I'd be a terrible cop!) I'm not his mother.
I can only hope that when he puts on that uniform & gets out there, he takes on a "role" that puts distance between "him" and the horrible stuff out there. (We have a serial killer........just wonderful)

Anthony, maybe you have some words of wisdom???
