For those that do not know, Dr. Roerich and myself do a bit of behind the scenes discussion on PTSD, as he is one of the world experts in trauma therapy and PTSD, and a member of this forum. Bob found this forum when we released our first press release notifying the world about the forum support and community that we have here.

Bob has just been appointed as a board member upon the National Gulf War Resource Center (NGWRC). This is nothing short of a huge achievement for anyone within the medical profession, and much deserved for his expertise within the PTSD arena.

Congratulations Bob on your appointment, and I know you will be a huge asset to the NGWRC organization. Well done. You can read about Bobs success during his career on his biography.

For community information. Bob contacted me from the press release and is helping me to expand the resource and expose it to the world for what it is, a supportive and helpful community to sufferers of PTSD, their spouses, family and friends. Bob picks my brain from a PTSD perspective, I pick his from his medical expertise, and combined, we are attempting to provide a wider awareness of PTSD to the world.

Again though, congratulations Bob on such a fine achievement, any physician would be proud off.

Alright Bob! Congratulations! :thumbs-up

WAY TO GO, BOB! I hope you'll still return our calls. Congratulations.

Anthony, Nam, Irs, friends,

Thank you for the well wishes! The phone call from the NGWRC came as a surprise. I accepted, asking what I could do to help veterans who suffer from PTSD.

Working together, as this forum proudly shows the world, is a giant step towards education, sharing personal experiences and brainstorming to find more pieces to the PTSD puzzle.

In community and support,

Roerich

:claps: :occasion: (obviously it's non-alcoholic beer...hic..!) Excellent news!

There I was minding my own business and now another surprise. The board has now voted to appoint me to a 2 year term as Vice President of the NGWRC.

"God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference."

Roerich

oh wow....they must think very highly of you, as we do here! Congratulations again!

Good going Bob... you deserve the appointment mate and the some recognition for you selfless efforts towards trauma and PTSD. More doctors should take a leaf from your book mate, and dedicate more time to helping the patients, instead of charging as many as possible within an hour to pay for the BMW's. You know what I mean. Just that bit more care, empathy and compassion to help the client, and maybe more clients might begin trusting their doctors and begin telling them more about the real issues.
