A service dog for Vipul, a medical corps veteran in Mumbai
A medical corps veteran in Mumbai needs help with a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment after leaving service with a traumatic brain injury.

Apurva served eight years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. She has been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $400.
Apurva is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $400 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $270
• Transport to appointments: $35
• Essential household items: $95
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you, Vipul. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together.
Sending strength, Vipul. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope October is when things finally get easier.

So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Hồ Chí Minh City so I could bring a meal.
