Ilona Meagher's Facebook profile

"Action is good for the soul
and the goal."

Ilona Meagher is an independent Illinois-based online writer, new media developer and author of Moving a Nation to Care: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and America's Returning Troops.

After reading of a soldier's lost battle with combat stress/PTSD in 2005, she decided to pursue the then under-reported topic.

It would change her life.
