I had a very hard time getting on the plane to come here for this amazing trip due to social anxiety and PTSD. I was scared I wouldn’t be able to go. What if I got there and couldn’t emotionally handle things? When someone expresses gratitude towards me, I generally become an emotional mess. I feel like I don’t deserve the nice things people say or do for me. I feel like there is someone else worthier, which is why I had to force myself to come. I needed to get out of my comfort zone and the only way I feel ok doing that is with other military members. Regardless of branch of service, we always have a common thread. Frenchy, thank you. You kept the conversation going and made me feel right at home. To the N Bar Ranch, I can’t possibly put into words how grateful I am. You treated us first class all the way. You also made me feel beyond welcome. Thank you WWIA, this was a much-needed healing experience I will always treasure. 
