  1. My dh was 70% SC for PTSD, had not worked at a full time job for 4-5 years, denied 100% (& IU). Had NOD on file when he was killed in an accident. The coroner listed his PTSD as a "significant contributing factor" to his death due to his increased startle response etc. VA has denied my DIC saying the coroners determination is "just an opinion" and because the primary cause of death is "blunt force trauma" they do not have to consider the symptoms of his PTSD. He had been to a scheduled PTSD therapy session the day prior to his death. He scored 72 on his PCL. And expressed "extreme" trouble: concentraiting, sleeping etc. On top of this the VA still has not sent us his month of death check. Every time I call they tell me it was returned "undeliverable". I live at the same address they mailed all my dh checks, the same address I have included on all my paperwork I have sent them. The last time I called they said a check had been mailed May 6, 2010. It was returned "undeliverable". When I asked what address they were sending it to they said that information was unavailable.
