DIVA Lisa
I am the wife of a disabled Iraq veteran. He served two, year long, tours as an infantry soldier with the US Army in Iraq in 2003 and 2005, which included the initial invasion. He was diagnosed with PTSD and TBI and suffers daily, barely able to perform the basic activities of daily living.
