What a terrible experience for your husband to have to cope with during his first year on the job. He's lucky to have you to talk with. Many police officers, paramedics, doctors etc. don't talk about the horrors they see so often and it can lead to huge problems for them psychologically down the line. My dad was a cop for 25 years and never had to deal with this, but saw some pretty terrible things, as did my mom in a paediatric ER and then in refugee camps in Northern Iraq after the first Gulf War. Bless all of them for taking on these burdens to make our lives better. -- Cindy's Cottage
