Ep. 84 ”There Is Nothing Like Living On The Verge Of Death...” Sean’s American Story

"There is nothing like living on the verge of death to realize you are alive."   

Like other veterans and first responders, Sean knows this feeling.  It can be addictive, a feeling you long to have even though danger is always close.

This is Sean Welch's story.  Sean and Tina have a deep discussion about his PTS (D omitted on purpose.) and the day he lost his good friend while on deployment.  

Sean watched his friend die; survivors guilt consumed Sean.  The nightmares and PTS are part of his life every single day. Sleep avails Sean. He is triggered by certain smells. 

Sean is not alone; PTS affects so many of our veterans and first reponders.  They see the worst of humanity, but the calling to help others outweighs the horrors.

Sean is a proud veteran, and a dedicated police officer. One year ago Sean achieved his dream of becoming a k-9 police officer.  Sean and his faithful partner, Fero, patrol together everyday.

He uses his voice to help all Americans understand the strength and plight of our nation's heroes. 

Sean is an advocate for mental health.  He is an Operation Enduring Warrior honoree, an organization that mentally and physically supports veterans and first responders.
