I served fourteen years in the navy and was discharged in 2025 with a back injury. I have been waiting eleven 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 $3,950.
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 $3,950 goes:
• Housing deposit and first month: $2,250
• Transport to appointments: $280
• Training provider fees: $1,420
Thank you so much.

Praying for you, Uwe. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Hyderabad.
how is Uwe doing now?
Hope it all works out, Uwe. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
Hope you get there. My neighbor in Lalitpur donated after I showed her your page.
Hope things get better soon, Uwe. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Kassel.
Wishing you the best, Uwe. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Medina.
Sending strength, Uwe. This could happen to any of us.
