Something to look into, dear Reader, if you or someone you know might benefit from this. [WashingtonExaminer] A company aiming to help alleviate post-traumatic stress disorder is hoping to roll out a therapeutic platform, developed by a son for his father, that promises to provide veterans a good night’s sleep.NightWare, a medical device company, over the next two months, seeks approval from the Veteran Affairs and Defense departments for its "kits" that essentially arouse a sleeping soldier from a PTSD-induced nightmare. And hopefully after the VA and DOD approve it, other health insurance plans will, too. "What it does is it interrupts the nightmare," Matthew Tucker, the company’s chief commercial officer, told the Washington Examiner. |

| #4 My dog would start barking whenever I started slipping into nightmare. She died, but taught my Chihuahua to do the same. He died and my present dog leaves the room. |
