LAPD wives stick together

LAPD Wife posts word of a new club for the wives of officers. From the group's website:

The LAPD Wives Club is for women dating, engaged or married to LAPD officers — active, retired or who have reached the "end of watch."

As Police Wives we experience emotions that other wives don't; we have fears that other wives don't; we deal with shift changes and periods of single parenting and lonely holidays. Our husbands are often stressed and go through many changes stemming from their careers. It's been said that police wives are the hidden partners and, whether we realize it or not in the beginning, those are big shoes to fill.

They launch formally on Thursday at the North Hollywood station.
