[QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [QB] Thank you for the kind comments. I don't know whether I should forward them to his family or not. Any comments on whether I should or not? I am really not an expert in this area so I don't know what is the correct protocol. And my apologies for "TWI" (Typing While Intoxicated). I never drink, and I never type and drink!! The outcome sure isn't what I had planned. What an idiot I am. I am still in the disbelief status of trying to understand that two more friends are gone. There hasn't been one single passing of a friend in 2015 and now 2016 where I could say, "Well, at least we all knew it was coming". I can't say that because none of them were like that. Every single one was an absolute shock. I did receive some PMs and I'll be returning them ASAP. I've got 128 emails that I'm trying to get caught up on, so hopefully by the end of this week I will be caught up. Thank you also for the comments about PTSD (PTSC---interesting!). The one issue that seems unavoidable is that I have never been able to locate a professional who knows what I'm talking about. I've given some really excellent articles to a few doctors and have asked them to please read it in their spare time, because it will explain what this is all about. That has helped a little, but not even my department can find someone for their own people who are still working. I never imagined that all of those images and circumstances would catch up with me so many years later. And from the online reading I've done (which is a lot!), this is very common and happens all the time. Hopefully I'll find someone who knows how to get me going in the right direction. Unfortunately, it's not something that a person can just talk about to anyone. The description alone is enough to give some people nightmares, and I would never want to give anyone a graphic description of what happened and/or what I saw. So that makes it very limiting for me---I can't (won't) tell anyone these things unless they're getting paid to hear it. I think I need a train trip. Specifically, a trip on #14 to SEA, and then a flight home on Virgin America while they are still around (Alaska Airlines will be buying them in case you haven't heard the news yet----it's fairly recent info).
