Hospice now uses videos to help Vietnam Veterans.
It's through Tours of Peace, which took veterans back to Vietnam to find peace and make amends with their past.
Now veterans right in our area can see these videos in hope of helping with PTSD and other post-war issues.
"As a patient grows older and there's less ability to control and compartmentalize things, PTSD issues that they may have suppressed when they first came back from active duty are beginning to reemerge," said Philip Kittle, of Sangre de Cristo Hospice.
The next meeting will be held at 1:30 p.m. on February 11 at Rawlings Library in Pueblo.
