Come to think of it, I am disabled too. Crashed a couple of Hueys; one in 1975 and the other in 1994. I don't think much about the pain much anymore, it's just something you get used to. Hope to fix my back pain on 30 April. Doc is gonna go in from the front and elevate two vertebrae, then apply a synthetic splint and call it good. Same for the neck two weeks later.
Some states allow certain disabled vets free stuff....NV and CO, if you are 60% or greater, will give you a lifetime fishing license....maybe a small game license too. CO will also give you free plates for one vehicle.
