Despite years of seeking help through the VA and Vet Court, Corey died by suicide in October 2024. In this powerful episode, Libby shares what it was like being engaged during his deployment, the struggles of navigating the VA system, and the impact of losing him. Now a mother of four and a communications student, Libby is using her voice to advocate for mental health awareness, PTSD support, and veteran families. She opens up about her own healing journey and why she continues to fight for change. This story is one of heartbreak, resilience, and advocacy—and a reminder that no one should have to walk through trauma alone. 💙 Support the mission: Donate to the William H. “Bill” Butler Jr. Foundation: 🔗 https://www.8158podcast.com/donate 🌐 Website: 🔗 https://www.8158podcast.com 🎙 Want to be a guest?
