At Fort Sam Houston Army Spc. Charles Dominguez and others benefit from the Fisher House and Soldier and Family Assistance Center beside Brooke Army Medical Center. The homes provide a home away from home during long recoveries, offering dining, shared spaces, and near-family accommodations for patients and loved ones. Dominguez, burned in Iraq, visits daily with his wife and daughter Jade, who turns a birthday soon. The facilities, among about 35 nationwide, plan to expand capacity next year to house more families seeking support during medical care.
