With an all-voluntary armed forces, our country is at the mercy of individuals who, for little reason other than a desire to serve their country, willingly risk their lives and put their entire ordinary lives on hold (especially those in the National Guard and reservists). For you and I. We should do all that we can to ensure these folks come back to a country who welcomes them home, is thankful for their service, and provides them with all the necessary health and mental health care humanly possible. That’s our duty, as ordinary citizens, to recognize the sacrifice these men and women have made. I’d also like to take a moment...

She helped found the organization that eventually became the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI), and was a tireless advocate on behalf of people with mental health concerns. It’s no wonder — her son had schizophrenia. Today the organization Mrs. Shetler helped start, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, has affiliates in every state and more than 1,100 communities. It offers support to the mentally ill and people living with them; promotes research and education on mental illness; and lobbies governments on mental health concerns. NAMI was formed in 1977 when Shetler and Beverly Young, a mother who also had a son with schizophrenia, met over lunch to discuss the similar challenges they shared raising a child wit...

This will tend to be almost entirely objective information, however, don’t be scared to throw in the occasional subjective tidbit if it helps to paint your picture. “She thinks this bruise may be old.” or “His ankles are always a bit swollen but not this much.” If a subjective addition adds to the picture, include it. When telling my objective story I tend to start with the level of consciousness and skin signs then move strait into a head to toe report of pertinent findings. Remember that pertinent information can be positive fi...
