Marilyn_S is on a distinguished road

Sometimes, I bring up the war and ask dad questions about his experiences. He bashfully chuckles and turns red faced. He always says that he is just a common person and all he did was try to stay alive and not go crazy. Is it bad for me to ask him questions? He seems to always answer, especially when my mother stays out of the conversation. Mom acts a little jelous sometimes because he tells me things he hasn't even told her. Mom will not let me tell him about my PTSD and why I have it, but its like dad somehow knows there is not all to mom's stories than meets the eye. She's kind of mean to him sometimes. He so much doesn't deserve that. I don't know, I just hope I'm doing the right things because I love my daddy. I was an adult when he and mother married but he is more of a dad to me than my real dad was ever possibly even capable of. Any thoughts are welcomed. Marilyn S.
