My doc said she would put me in for a HISA grant for a walk in tub and a ramp or something for my back steps. I've got lympodema which is causing my legs to swell a lot and my knee is making it hard to get down the steps. I have no experience with this so any thoughts would be great. Currently my washer/dryer are in my basement so my niece does my laundry, but those steps out the back door are just getting tough. If I had the money I would finish the basement put in a bathroom, bedroom and office and move down there and move my niece and family into the upstairs. She takes care of me and it would be great if we could live in the same house. I've got to pay more down on my house before I can sell it. Sorry I digress, so what kind of success have you had with HISA and what should I be aware of.

I am writing my memoirs and would love it if you could help a shipmate out and look at it.
I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life.
The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.
