Connections: Dealing with PTSD

There are many of us that either are, or knew a person, dealing with PTSD. On this Connections we talk with Dr. Kathy Platoni, a longtime colonel who worked with the U.S. Army Reserve on the effects of war, or PTSD. She’s speaking at Hobart and William Smith about PTSD in modern warfare.

Later on, how can you be a friend to a friend who's sick? LettyCottinPogrebin, author of the popular book How to Be a Friend to a Friend Who's Sick is coming to the JCC, joins us on the phone and Lori Harter of the JCC joins us in studio.
