"I do not think I will ever find any peace or happiness; probably I would be better off dead. It does not matter one way or the other. I just get so tired of things at times." -- Eddie Livingston, WWII veteran, former P.O.W., PTSD sufferer, in a letter to his wife, Helen, August 1, 1966.
Editor's note: The graphic illustration is of the house where Eddie and his wife Helen lived in squalor, without lights or running water, for 30 years. The illustration is from Pam Baker, Eddie's niece, with whom Eddie went to live right before he died.
