Disabled Veteran Seeks Grant For Affordable Accessible Transportation

by James A. Lynch
(Topeka, Kansas, USA)

I James A. Lynch am a handicapped veteran, medically discharged from the Army in 1990.

I am treated by the VA Medical Center in Topeka, Kansas. My wife is a paraplegic from a vehicle accident 10 years ago. We are now both in wheelchairs.

My wife is not covered by the government, so her expense falls on Medicare and us. We just purchased a house that is handicapped accessible in March of 2010, but do not have transportation for us to get around in.

My house was VA loan approved, which guaranteed the full loan amount so as to help us by not having to make a down payment or carry any money to the closing.

We are now seeking any help we can get to be able to afford reasonable transportation for the both of us.

Congratulations on making the effort to submit your story to Accessible.org.

With the publication of your story, you are now well on your way to:

1. Getting your story known to a wide audience that could help you.

2. Getting your story polished up and presentable so you can submit it elsewhere, including the White House.

As a disabled person myself, I can sympathize with your situation and I definitely understand your need for help.

I've done a bit of research and found these resources for you:

Leave no Veteran Behind

Support for Disabled Veterans in need

State Veterans Affairs Offices

Others reading your story may be able to contribute more.

In any case, please let us know if they've been helpful to you.
