Opinion: Richard Engel on applying lessons from PTSD to son's diagnosis
NBC correspondent
Richard Engel writes about applying lessons he learned managing PTSD to
handling his son's diagnosis of RETT Syndrome, a condition that prevents his
brain from controlling his body and mind.
"The more Henry’s diagnosis sank in, the sadder, and angrier I became," Engel writes. "It seemed unfair. It seemed unjust. He didn’t deserve this, and neither did we."
