Purpose of Donations
I am raising funds for adaptive technology for my Service Dog Hermes.

I
have had him for four weeks now. He is absolutely brilliant. catches on
fast. Up until the last week in September. He had been pulling me
around in my Manual Wheelchair. The frame is broke. so that training is
on hold. He knows go to the left, go to the right, turn left, and turn
right. there are a few other commands he is doing quite well at too.
I
am working with him to pick stuff up for me. He
really is eager to
learn. He enjoys pulling me around the city. We are working on walking
slow with my walker too.
I am a United States Marine Corps Veteran. After Twenty-Five years, I
am still working on service connected disability.
I
reacted to Smallpox vaccine and became very sick. I have had many
symptoms for years now. In addition to the Vaccine Issues. I had some
injuries to my back and feet. some from being physically harassed by
other marines. In addition to the physical issues. I deal with Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder. This is no picnic.
If this project raises more money than I need for my Service Dog. I
plan on working on getting rid of my large amount of debt.

Drivers License
I
had a very bad car
accident a few years back. I was in Gary Indiana, taking a friend to
manager's school. He was living in Chicago at that time. My residence
was in Madison, Wisconsin. My speed at the time was 35 miles per hour.
I know this because just before approaching the stop lights. I checked
my speed. I was in a strange city. doing my best to remain cautious.
As I approached the intersection. A man in a pick up truck blew through
his red light. then stopped in my lane. this was right in front of me.
He had to stop there because the traffic in the fast lane to my left
was going to fast. I know this because I looked to see if I could
swerve around the stopped truck in my path. I slammed on the
brakes. My van kept sliding forward right into the side of his pick up
truck. He was talking on his cell phone, and was not paying attention
to the situation. I bounced off the windshield, as well as my friend. I
had my seat belt on prior to picking up coffee, and forgot to put the
belt back on. This wasn't a normal thing for me.
In the Emergency Room, my friend was in the area next to the guy we
hit. He admitted to being the cause of the accident. then the police
interviewed him. the guy name dropped a relative of the cop. so the cop
never interviewed my friend. I was in shock from a head injury. the
accident was very vague in my mind.
Two years later. This jerk sued me through his insurance agency. I was
suffering pretty severe mental illness and physical issues from my long
standing disability. I no longer had a vehicle, so to travel to Gary
Indiana would have been difficult. I was to ill to even attempt the
journey. I looked for a Lawyer, it didn't pan out for me.
The end result was that I no longer can drive. The State of Wisconsin
suspended my license. This was because I was not able to go to court in
Indiana. The Judgment of some $23,000 against me was the reason.
I do not pretend to know what the answers. Yes, I made some mistakes.
But I was not at fault for this accident. This guy was on his stupid
phone jabbering away. He still was jabbering away right after the
vehicles collided.

Veteran's Service Connected Disability Status
I
have been suffering
from being sick for many years now. I became very ill in boot camp at
San Diego Recruit Training Depot. I reacted to the Smallpox
Vaccination. For all these years now, I have had a Fever. My muscles
from head to toe hurt at all times. In addition to this problem.
I had to work harder to keep up with my fellow Marines. This
ended up with injuries from my neck to my shoulders, and legs, feet. In
addition to this I have injuries from incidents of abuse. These are
documented in my medical records. I had reported to sick bay for most
of my ailments throughout my military career.
The incidents of abuse can be easily located. A couple of examples, I
had to get stitches in the back of my head. I told them that a friend
threw a rock at me. it was more to do with me being gay. I also
reported hurting my hip when out on the town. I was kicked in the lower
back by another marine. some other incidents include being thrown
around the barracks. getting punched and kicked at regular intervals.
Currently I am being treated at the Veteran's Hospital. For
Depression, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in the Mental Health
Outpatient Program. I am also being seen by a Doctor for General
Medicine, and the Pain Clinic. I must admit my physical needs are not
being addressed to my satisfaction.
I have been suicidal for quite some time, because of these situations.
I feel like there is no way out of them. I have been below the poverty
line for many years now. This is very frustrating that my country will
not honor its contractual obligations. I do not feel that my County
Veteran's Officer is completely helpful. I feel she has left much out
of my claim. this is frustrating for me. Currently the only claims in
the system are for Fibromyalgia and CFS. The physical injuries have no
claims in the process at all. I am unsure if the Depression and
P.T.S.D. are being claimed properly too.

Fund Raising
I
need a Lawyer who can
make sure that donations for my various needs are not considered
income. I have many special needs and desires. These wishes
could
potentially help many variables to my issues. Currently I have a PayPal
account linked to it's own checking account at my local Credit Union
Currently my books are at -150.00. This was due to a low turnout at a
concert that was performed. The costs involved with promoting the show.
were higher than what the lover offering at the concert cost.
The
end total was a negative number.

| My
Debt |
My Debt is fairly
substantial. This is the result of
living pretty much below the poverty line for so many years. This is a
huge frustration for me. Often I live from check to check. Just barely
making it. I don't spend a bunch of money on extravagant things. My
lifestyle is a very simple one, I am a minimalist in all things.

Accident
- Student Loans
- Computer Equipment
- Gas and Electric
