The son of an Iraq War veteran designed an app to stop his dad's PTSD nightmares


(CNN) When US Army veteran Patrick Skluzacek returned from Iraq in the mid-2000s, life was good -- every day was another welcome home party, he had a paid month off work, and he was finally back with family. His son, Tyler Skluzacek, now 27, knew his father had changed. So in 2015, Tyler created a smartwatch app that tracks, manages, and stops nightmares to help his father. During the majority of his 12-month deployment, Patrick Skluzacek was a US Army convoy commander, managing fuel deliveries to Fallujah and Ramadi -- two strongholds of the Iraqi insurgency at the time. The app is now known as NightWare and is a prescription-only app for the Apple Watch.
