[Also New To Board, And Site]

Just to say, Thanks, to all who made this site possible. Funny, I work for the VA in a medical hospital, and also a retired military vet, and I have problems getting answers. I will say that most, not all, but most of us, are dedicated to try and make it a little better for the veteran and the family.

Blessing to you all!

[Temporary Sc Disability For Ao And Prostate Ca]

I need some help. I am currently receiving sc disability for prostate cancer (100%). I started receiving benefits in 2007, and had a radical prostatectomy that same year. Now, I am getting ready to retire from federal employment, and the disability money goes a long way to help with my retirement plans.

I just learned that my disability was declared temporary, but never received notification from VA (my employer). Now I am concerned that I can wake up some morning, and not have the sc disability check. My psa's are normal, but I am still having major problems with leakage and other related problems (ahem, read between the lines for that one).

Question, should I just lay low and pray that the checks keep coming, or tell someone? What exactly is the rule here? I always thought the temporary rule was 1 year.
