ANY ONE PLEASE HELP! MY CONGRESSMAN ASSIST CALLED ME BACK YESTERDAY, TOLD ME THAT MY LETTER HAS NOT EVEN BEEN SENT IN TO THE VA. MY VA OFFICE HERE SUPPOSELY SENT IT BACK FOR ME WITH APPEAL AND I AM JUST FINDING OUT WAS NOT DONE. SO I KNOW IT IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE I WAS NOT INTERESTED I HAVE HEARD THE FASTER YOU GET THEM IN THE BETTER IT LOOKS, AND MINE IS PAST DUE ON SEPT 21, SO NOW I HAVE TO GET IT DONE ASAP. QUESTION SHOULD I PUT ALL SURGERY'S ON THE FORM 9 APPEAL OR JUST PUT THE SAME OLD STUFF ON THE APPEAL. I AM THINKING ABOUT PUTTING ALL THE STUFF ON IT, LIKE THE GALL BLADDER THE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE THE 30 CANCER SURGERY'S AND LIST EVERYTHING. THEY KEEP DENIAL BECAUSE OF THE CANCER IS NOT PRIMARY. WHAT SHOULD I DO? THANKS GJ

Berta Thanks again, Went to your post, and check on skin cancer. I found this, maybe nothing but just gave me a little hope again. Causes and Risk Factors of Skin Cancer list on the list it has Exposure to Chemicals. Arsenic(an ingredient in pesticides), paraffin, industrial tar, coal and certain types of oil may increase risk.. I believe AO has an ingredient of pesticides. Could this be a little hope you think. Going to take this to my file. Just hoping for a miracle....Thanks berta, I am still going to work on it will let you know gj

Berta I tried to send you a message, and it would not go through, His death certificate is mucoepidermoid cancer and Lung Cancer, staph infection, phumonia, Lung Cancer being first on list, The vet rep here in our town is a female and she is good with signing forms but she is no vet. She told my husband the first time he applied for AO that it would go on through with no problems that was 2001, when he first found he had lung cancer. His cancer started from a mole under his nose, and the gums all his teeth had to be pulled this was 1986, then in 1995 it came back to his palet, and nose, then it 1999 it came back in his palet and gums. Then 2001 was found in his lungs, diaphram and esphogas, and then 6 months before he died his esphogas closed up from tumor and he could not eat or drink at all. feeding tube. His family on both mother and father side, never had cancer, and no one in his family ever went to Viet Nam but him, and he is the only one in his family so far, as far back as the 1800 who died with cancer all of them had heart problems. I told the Winston Salem Meeting this, Did not help. I will try to go the the other sites and see if I can find more on the cancer, I have medical records from the 2 main hospitals he went to but not all of them, I have called the Congressman Robin Hayes Office and gave them permission to help, been month ago have not heard from them. The first cancer they took was basel cell, and squamouns cell and later was mucoepidermoid. Do you know if basel is STS, I not even sure of that. I will look up these you sent me and go from there thanks I have printed it off and will take to the rep, and see if she can help also.

This is the Lung Cancer my husband had, He died. I have been denied for DIC, Lung Cancer, and for Agent Orange, Several Times, All on appeal. I don't know where else to go I have looked up the cancer on Web MD, on the Cancer Site and cannot find no info on it. I need to know a little something about it and I can't seem to find anything The VA has denied me of DIC, I need help, I need the DIC to help me with the bills left from his death, and I am not old enough to get his SSI, I have 10 more years before that If any one can help I thank you now. gj
