Tyler served six years in the navy and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. He has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote comes to $4,900. Tyler 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 $4,900 goes: • Training provider fees: $2,700 • Housing deposit and first month: $1,400 • Transport to appointments: $340 • Essential household items: $460 With deep gratitude, Emilia
