I served fourteen years in the navy and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $850.
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.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $850 goes:
• Training provider fees: $360
• Housing deposit and first month: $360
• Transport to appointments: $80
• Essential household items: $50
I hope life is good to you.

Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
keep going, Sachin. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Durgapur
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. All the best.
Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 34 people at work. Greetings from Cairo
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Accra but we're thinking of you.
Take care, Sachin. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Durgapur.
