He was rated for the DMII in 2009 and CAD at the end of 2010.

He put in a claim for a stroke he had in April 2012 being associated with CAD and was denied.

Denial reason: The evidence does not show that your condition resulted from, or was aggravated by, a service-connected disability.

The explanation was The VA examiner gave the opinion that it was less likely than not that your claimed stroke is secondary to CAD condition or related to your military service.

He got 3 months of 100% for a heart attack he had in April 2012.

He's appealing that decision.

He had stents put in 1994, a Carotid endarterectomy done in 2003 and a Aortic Aneurysm repaired in 2005.

Then he had a heart attack in April 2012 and had some stents put in and then suffered a stroke.

In January of 2013 he had another stroke. Lost the vision in his left eye in July 2012.
