Hello to All!  I want to first thank Peggy for allowing me this opportunity to serve the GLMA Nursing Section in this very small capacity of writing on the Blog.  I certainly hope to become more involved as time evolves.

As stated in my bio, my interests center around the psychosocial concerns of LGBT veterans, I’m also interested in gay men’s health issues and other concerns of sexual minorities.  As I told Peggy, I’m totally dismayed by the lack of nursing research on LGBT healthcare, it’s certainly my intent to change this to a small degree.

I just completed a literature search on Military Sexual Trauma, in general but specific to male rape victims.  I’m also curious as to whether there are LGBT considerations to be discovered.  I plan to do some reading and writing on this over the weekend and post it on this blog.  Have a great weekend and feel free to contact me.
