|
Marcus, his sister, and his mother are counting the days untill
Marcus's father come
s home from Afghanistan. Waiting weeks for a phone call and receiving
only an occasi
onal e-mail has been difficult for the family, but they're ready to
celebrate his re
turn. When the big day comes, they're overcome by happiness and
relief that he's sa
fe, but as the days pass, Marcus begins to feel that there's something
different abo
ut his father. He barely sleeps, he's obsessed with news from
Afghanistan, and whil
e at times he seems almost to happy, at other times he's erratic and
aggresive. Mar
cus knows that post-traumatic stress disorder affects many soldiers,
but at first he
finds it hard to believe his father needs help, and then when he does
think he needs
counselling, he just can't seem to convince his father.
