So sorry to hear of the way you acquired ataxia ........ though there's not going to be a suitable way. Keep texting if you're able to, you're sure to find a like minded spirit perhaps with a similar tragic experience.

from one Military Veteran(RAF) to another, thank you for your service to Queen and Country, we are of a simular age, I look forward to a better life every day that I wake up, I have too many medical problems to list here, I put them to the back of my mind, forget them and live my life as best I can

Take care and stay safe.
