Homeless

I came home from the first Gulf War with mental health and physical issues like most every servicemember does. I decided I didn't want to pay rent anymore. I lived in an RV for 10 years. I then started taking care of a much older paralyzed Air Force veteran. We decided we'd both save lots of money (I had parked my RV on a friend's property by now) if I just moved in as a live in caregiver. After 10 years I had a real home again. A bathroom! I now have 3 roses, snapdragons, a big screen tv and a good therapist at the local VA hospital.
