Bobby Kilgore, the co-host of Horses and Heroes, interviewed Jeannette Taper
on the Internet radio show, Until you walk the path, You don't know
where it goes. They talked about her experiences working at the VA as
well as sharing her reasons for becoming a whistle blower. Towards the
end of the show, there is contact information for the VA, including
Robert McDonald, the VA, and the news networks.
Horses and Heroes
combines the concepts a talk show with that of a documentary, by
intertwining the spontaneity of a talk show with the scripted
informational aspects of a documentary. It will utilize both
interviews and practical demonstrations of horse therapy to give the
audience a full understanding of how and why working with the horses
help veterans heal. Although Equine Therapy will be the stage, the
primary focus will be on the eight veterans as they sharing what
they experienced while they served our country
and how those events
had a lasting effect on their lives as well as on those who love
them.
Horses and Heroes is
not about pointing fingers or creating a political firestorm. It is
a documentary series, which will help military personnel and veterans
find a new way to cope with the physical and emotional challenges
brought into their lives by war. Equine Therapy does not involve
drugs nor lying on a couch and spilling their guts to a therapist.
What it does do is help them find new ways to see and react to their
emotional triggers. It helps their bodies remember how it used to
work. It can't replace what was lost, but it can give them the
confidence to see that they are more than the sum of their body
parts. Horses and Heroes will give veterans and military personnel
the information they need to find alternative healing solutions,
which can help lower the suicide rate.
