They were fleeing toward her parents’ house in Swannanoa, N.C.“Dear God, please let us get there safely,” Ms. Lytle recalled praying aloud.They eventually made it. But soon after, Fitz started showing symptoms of post-traumatic stress. He didn’t want to eat. He cried uncontrollably at times, especially during downpours. Often, he wetted himself.
