Veteran in need: Carter's next mission is stability
A medical corps veteran in Sheffield needs help with a vocational welding course and tools after leaving service with post-traumatic stress.

Marilyn served eight years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2025 with post-traumatic stress. She has been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a vocational welding course and tools. The quote comes to $3,350.
Marilyn 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 $3,350 goes:
• Essential household items: $300
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,350
• Training provider fees: $1,700
Thank you for reading my story.

Good luck, Carter. Shared it with a few friends
sending love, Carter. Your post was clear and honest. After 20 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
