Legal immigration shouldn’t feel like punishment — but for many, it does.

In this episode of Unwritten Chapters, I explore the emotional toll of doing everything “by the book” and still being left in limbo. Inspired by the stories of legal immigrants caught in the shadows of ICE raids — and my own stalled Veterans Affairs claim — this episode sheds light on the silent suffering inside systems that promise fairness but rarely deliver it.

🎧 What you’ll hear:
– The harsh truth behind “legal immigration” delays
– The real human cost of ICE raids on vulnerable families
– My personal journey with Veterans Affairs limbo
– Why bureaucracy is its own kind of trauma
– A call to build empathy beyond headlines

If you’ve ever waited for justice, for help, or even just for answers — this one’s for you.

🔔 Follow Unwritten Chapters for raw, honest stories from a veteran, medic, and survivor finding meaning in the wait.
