My daughter got caught in a hailstorm and it changed her forever

My heart breaks because there’s nothing I can do for her (Picture: Emily Streeter)I watch as my 11-year-old paces from window to window, hands pressed so tightly over her ears that her fingernails break skin. I’ve seen this before – the panic, the screams, the vomit – and my heart breaks because there’s nothing I can do for her. Other times I’ve tried to hold her, but she wriggles free. We’ve drawn curtains, but she wants to watch.
