Compassionate Clowning: PTSD Recovery




Mil Resource Radio show

Summary: Mil Resource Radio with Linda Kreter and co-host Tosombra Kimes presents: "Compassionate Clowning for PTSD". Guest, George Patrin, MD, a pediatrician with the VA for 23+ years believed in his work, and helping others. When his 17-year old son, Andrew, took his life while in treatment at the VA, George's life changed forever. Introduced to Patch Adams and the familiar red bulb nose, George and Patch went on humanitarian or compassionate clowning trips and began veteran-only trips - deeply entrenched PTSD was transformed in days. Learn how compassion, laughter, and trained sensing (listening, hearing, sharing compassion) can change the world for veterans. Everyone serves and together we make a difference – 24/7 Outreach for Military Family Support! More at www.MilResourceRadio.com.
