"It won't be easy, Issa. Andrew is suffering from a stress disorder that Joanna referred to as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder."
Issa gave him a puzzled look. She could not understand what it exactly meant, but according to what she heard, it is a type of mental disorder. As if Leo had read her thoughts, he started explaining it to her.
