This post marks the 200th installment of our
Retiring Your Boots Blog- Real-life stories from wounded veterans and those
that care for them. We (the Heroes Thanking Heroes Program Representatives)
started this blog for many reasons but most importantly- To provide hope and healing
for other wounded, disabled, & ill veterans & their families.
To provide Hope. Maybe, someone out there is reading- and we
are able to connect with them through our stories, our real-life experiences.
If we’ve saved just one life, every post and documenting our journey was 100 %
worth it.
To Heal. Writing is healing. Sharing parts of our stories
that we’ve never been able to share can be healing. The Retiring Your Boots
blog is a platform for our Representatives, an outlet for them to distress, to
challenge themselves, and to feel like they are helping others, because they are.
A Glimpse Back in Time:
The great thing
about our blog is everyone’s lives are so different so we have a variety of
posts over the last 3.5 years. We hope you'll join us in reading back through these incredible stories!

informational,
Some are inspiring,
We advocate for
better care and more understanding...
We share about
the invisible injuries, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain
Injuries, mental health, blindness, & mobility...
