I served eight years in the army and was discharged in 2024 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting eleven 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 $5,800. 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 $5,800 goes: • Training provider fees: $3,050 • Housing deposit and first month: $2,150 • Essential household items: $600 With deep gratitude, Todd

    Good luck, Todd. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Springfield.

    • Majid Jamal Sabbagh

      Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Lagos!
