Going through any transitions is always a challenging time for a family. An injury to a family member can be particularly difficult because it causes a shift in the dynamic of the household.

Dr. Monica Escamilla, Family Psychologist at Polytrauma Rehabilitation Center in San Antonio, Texas, discusses different aspects of co-parenting with a wounded warrior and the challenges that parents may face. She answers questions like:

How it can impact the children in the home?
What can make it worse?
What can these parents do to help?
How to find hope and healing?
