Summary

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode/blog contains a story about (gun) violence which may be triggering to survivors.

Many years ago, my husband and I were held up at gunpoint. 

I have mentioned it before, but I have never shared the full story because it was traumatic. 

When one of you asked me to share this experience, how it impacted my life, and how I recovered from it, I thought it might be time to share. 

By sharing my story of trauma and recovery, I hope to help others who have experienced a traumatic event.
