My file is marked expedited and I’m on day 217. I submitted it about 03/23/18 and they started work on it in 06/18. I’ve had many appointments and since beginning of September it has been STILL. Strange thing is that it’s appeal to backdate the date to when I spent five months in a coma. It took me 14 years to get disability. The VA’s response to all the sick veterans stresses me out and makes me sad most days. The VA, more than my terminal illness, makes me want to give up.

The date it was in the system was 3/18. Yes, I sent my first claim in 2005 after rehabbing from five months in a coma. It took until 2017 to get approved for various percentages of disability.
My case is obvious. There’s nothing else it could be. All the physicians that helped me couldn’t diagnose me until they read the information about all the illnessses associate with the Gulf War Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, etc.
I feel like I fulfilled my commitment and the VA is trying no take their time compensating me. I just hope the VA gets better. I’m weak, my brain is lazy, I can’t stand/walk, take a lot of medicines, I have very little hair, etc etc etc and I would do those 22 years all over again.
