My dog and I were in a car accident years ago. The car was totalled. I had 7 months of physio. My dog, while physically fine, was terrified of the car for about 2 months. I won't listen to the Duran Duran CD that was playing at the time of the accident, I threw it away. That was 7 yrs ago.Tatiana & Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797564788511595247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-80292272772349290362012-03-09T23:40:48.425-06:002012-03-09T23:40:48.425-06:00We haven't been able to keep up like we'd ...We haven't been able to keep up like we'd like with Typist injured. We were horrorhorrorhorrorfied to hear that Kathi's new building had a fire. Typist says she would have peed in her britches. We are so glad they got over to Amy's and it turned out okay! Typist has PTSD, so if either wants to talk to someone who can relate tell either to give her a shout. I know where to find her. ;) *ducky hugs to all*<br />And CJ, you are so handsome!!! :)George The Duck and the HotMBC Kittehshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999456269440709320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-67029703518642063892012-03-09T21:48:10.596-06:002012-03-09T21:48:10.596-06:00Aw, even my flinty little heart just melts when I ...Aw, even my flinty little heart just melts when I see CJ so sweetly sound asleep.

So something HUGE like that fire - which destroyed his home, killed a family member and badly injured him - is bound to leave its mark. Even though it was two weeks ago, I still purr for him and Kathi, and Amy and Lee and Sebastian. They have a long road of healing ahead of them.Sparklehttp://www.sparklecat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-38852178156604749312012-03-09T13:32:23.776-06:002012-03-09T13:32:23.776-06:00Good articles.

Back then there was no help for anyone emotionally and her parents would not let her talk about it. Because of that, she suffers with PTSD to this day. We keep Kathi and Amy in our prayers as they deal with this loss in their lives. It's important to talk about it and get those fears out in the open.Laila and Angel Minchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01751442642366810379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-27072729517860349242012-03-09T09:48:31.204-06:002012-03-09T09:48:31.204-06:00PTSD is tough, indeed.

She ...TW had a friend with PTSD stay with her once. She didn't know about the PTSD until the friend woke up screaming at night. Yes, animals most certainly get it. I'm sure any source of heat, probably even sun puddles, scares CJ and feels uncomfortably warm to him. He is a beautiful cat and he's beginning to look less like a burn victim every day. I don't know if he's healing this quickly psychologically. I hope Amy and Kathi can work together to heal. It's good that they're so close.Cathy Keishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237575721246947408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-79564669217834963022012-03-09T09:22:53.568-06:002012-03-09T09:22:53.568-06:00PTSD can get a strong hold on sum1 H2 knows and iz...PTSD can get a strong hold on sum1 H2 knows and iz fightin wif it herz self.

I was in an auto accident many years ago, and for a good year after I was paranoid any time I'd see a car moving up rapidly behind me. Kathy and Amy will be years getting over this trauma. Regarding animals - yes, I would think they could suffer from some sort of stress after in some form anyway.Mariodacathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600880780597061337noreply@blogger.com
