[...] I have so many injuries from high risk sports a doctor said I’d technically qualify as disabled.

Nice! I'm actually 100% Permanent & Total Disabled according to the VA. Partly because of the motorcycle accident, but also a bunch of other minor injuries and such from my time in the military. It's what's allowed me to retire so young in my life; my disability pay from the military is twice as much as my pension, plus I get free medical and dental for the rest of my life.
