Most people know the definition of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), as it has become an unfortunate, common after-effect of war, terrorism and assault. What many people don’t know is that PTSD can occur in people who have had significant, complex medical issues. This is the case with my daughter, who is eleven. I wanted to share our experiences, because I believe that it’s crucial to understand trauma from a child’s perspective, and to increase awareness of the potential connection between trauma and children with complex or ongoing medical issues.
