Benincase

Hello, this post may be the wrong forum, but I'm posting this in hopes that may be someone knows anything about this. My name is Joseph, I'm a 25 year old male ,dependant of a surviving Vietnam Veteran, My Father served During the years of '66 to '68. As you all know the side effects of Agent Orange, I have inherited the blood disorder Chloracne. My Chloracne is severe, I have lesions on my chest, back, arms, behind my ears and face. My question is also in hopes to help those children who also go through Chloracne skin disorder. Is There compensation for Chloracne in Vietnam Vet dependants yet? I heard there was an Act to pass through, but I havent heard anything yet, my father is currently fighting his VA compensation to this day. I'd rather not call a lawyer, because my dad's VA representative told me to wait til he gets my Dad settled, then he would help me. What should I do now to help myself so If and when im available for compensation?
