I served twelve years in the navy and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $600. 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 $600 goes: • Training provider fees: $280 • Housing deposit and first month: $270 • Transport to appointments: $35 • Essential household items: $15 Glad we found this place. - Sunita

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sunita!

    • Sunita B. BansalOwnerAnswer

      Sure. The biggest one is training provider fees, $280. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.

  • Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care

    • Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Casablanca this morning.

      • praying for you, Sunita. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Hubballi.

        • keep going, Sunita. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings

          • hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Bengaluru.

            • Keep going, Sunita. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Bengaluru.
