Reporting for ROLL CALL 1:51PM 6/24/13
As a songwriter, I have come up with new 'names' for PTSD, nightmares and suicide. I call PTSD "The Black Snake". It is a war wound that coils within the soul of the wounded inflicting life long pain. I call nightmares "Dancing with the Devil's Daughter. Those wounded with the Black Snake coiled within their souls suffer from having to Dance with the Devil's Daughter every night. And, I call suicide "The Pit of Nadir". Often times, the wounded warrior falls into the Pit of Nadir.....
I want to bring to your attention our "LINKS OF INTEREST" on this ROLL CALL page. I just added a new one called "A Soldier's Last Words".
We are receiving a whole lot of 'hits' now on this unique page. ROLL CALL is spreading across our land, and I am receiving lots of comments. I'm actually now helping some Veterans as their Veteran Advocate. I look forward to doing more to help if they want it. This link was sent to me by an older Mormon from Washington State who is not a Veteran, but is terribly concerned about our wounded warriors. I thank her for sending this to me.
Please read this letter. His last. He was writing it as he was falling into the Pit of Nadir. Tired of Dancing with the Devil's Daughter, and too afraid to face the Black Snake one more time. This is the way many who suffer war wounds respond.
This is why it is so terribly important to follow the Rules and Steps here on ROLL CALL. And, it is so important for any reading these words who need help to study this web site from top to bottom. It's taken us a little bit of time to 'zone in' on it, but now there is plenty of 'meat on the bone' here for any who need help to find it right here.
