I served fourteen years in the marines and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $350.
I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $350 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $220
• Essential household items: $60
• Transport to appointments: $70
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

You're not alone, Obiageli. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
