A woman's fight

As the fastest growing population of veterans, women often return from war with different problems and less support
By Raquel Rutledge / Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Susan Sonnheim has thrown away her shorts. It doesn't matter that it's a searing hot summer in Milwaukee. It's pants only from now on, a full-body wet suit when she goes to the beach. The former National Guard member from Franklin keeps her legs covered.
"They're ugly," she said.
Blown up in Baghdad at the beginning of the war by a roadside bomb, Sonnheim's body was peppered with shrapnel. Hundreds of pieces remain lodged in her legs and throughout much of her body. Her left eye is fully blind. She has shrapnel lodged in her "good" eye, and her hearing is dulled. She underwent multiple reconstructive surgeries on her face and ear during a 19-month stay at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.
Sonnheim, 47, is home now, but she's hardly comforted. She and many other women returning from war often are finding difficulty in the transition from warrior to wife, mom, student or simply civilian.
