I care not whether you are or not a veteran. I would have donated regardless.
I suffer from an auto-immune disease and am slowly losing my hearing. I am what one would consider to be legally deaf in my right ear and am on the verge of the same in my left. Surgery? maybe... hearing aid? makes me confused and worse
Anyone in need of medical attention to save a basic life fulfillment sense is someone I will support.
God Bless You
