As the parents of veterans who either came home from the war in Afghanistan or are currently serving, we at Morgan Hill understand the difficulty our vets have in restarting a “normal” life with family and friends. After what they have been through in service to us, “normal” life just doesn’t feel normal anymore. Our hearts go out not only to our soldiers who have survived the horrors of war abroad but to the families and friends of our soldiers who are now trying to reconnect and rebuild a life with a soldier who now seems like a stranger.
Veterans who are suffering from PTSD or other combat stress-related issues have found that equine therapy can really make a difference. Operation THRIVE Warrior Horsemanship, offered by Olympia’s Heart Strides Therapeutic Riding, is dedicated to helping our soldiers and their families. Please join us in supporting this great venture as they help service families find the emotional ceasefire they need to rebuild their lives, reconnect with loved ones, and reestablish wholeness.
