It’s no secret that we here at LifeDaily are big fans of our brave and selfless military men and women. We believe no one deserves recognition more than they do and we love featuring stories about our soldiers.

Yet unfortunately, we come across more stories than we would like to about veterans suffering from trauma due to the war. Whether their disabilities are physical, mental or both, we know how much they’ve sacrificed for their country and want to spread hope to those who are still fighting.

In the following video from USA Today, we see firsthand just how important it is for our veterans to seek help and take care of themselves. During an interview, we see how veteran Erick Scott, who served in the Army National Guard for 16 years, is calmed by his service dog Gumbo.

Scott learned of a program called K9s for Warriors to help veterans like himself suffering from PTSD and instantly had his life changed forever.

There is no way to go back and change the past for our brave soldiers. All we can do is show our support and love, and let our heroes know we are there for them.

Hopefully watching this video will help a few veterans learn that they don’t have to suffer anymore.
