This has certainly been a tough period and have struggled quite a bit of late. Despite my health issues I have completely changed my concept for assignment 4. I’m now focusing on soldiers that have returned from war zones with PTSD and how assistance and companion animals have an amazing ability to aid in the recovery process. I feel much more confident in this topic as it is one quite close to my heart and have a considerable amount of experience and knowledge about.

The one thing that I am concerned about is how I represent it as everyones experience is complete different and the last thing I would ever want to do is offend or ostracise anybody. I feel the best way to do that is to keep the narrative as broad as possible that way any individual that’s returned from overseas service can identify with it regardless of position or role.
