HadIt.com Elder jbasser Posted September 22, 2008 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 22, 2008 Congratulations Don. Now take care of yourself. Were you awarded no future exams? If so dont forget about champ VA for the Wife. They go back to the effective date and will remiburse you for MD visits and Pharmacy. Even if she has insurance they will still reimburse copayments. J A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect. A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served. Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founder Tbird Posted September 22, 2008 Founder Share Posted September 22, 2008 great news! we have a great group of veterans here, makes me proud to serve with you all! First I want to apolagize for dropping off and not keeping in touch. I have been sick for the most part of the past few months. As I type this I am fighting a cold, sometimes thats all it takes to knock me down these days. For those who might not know, I was given a grant of SC as Secondary to my DMII earlier this year with an effective date of 2005 (When I originally filed). But due to the VA listing my Heart Disease as "Aggravated By" instead of "Caused / Secondary" to my DMII I was given a rating of 0%. I received my decision today on the NOD for my Heart Disease Secondary To DMII. I was granted 100% Effective 2005 for my Heart Disease as "Secondary to" my DMII. I also was awarded SMC Housebound from 2007. It has been a long road to get here, and I still have more to fight with the VA, but it feels good to put one in the win column for a change. I absolutely must thank HADIT ( Thank You TBird) and all the caring members for this win. Without Hadit I seriously doubt I would be typing this post. Thank you to all those that read, posted, and replied to my posts. To go beyound that, I feel that I must mention a few people that I feel I can never thank enough for all their assitance and support. Carlie, CowGirl, Josephine, and Berta for all your support and thoughts. Morgan and Dr. Bash for all the time spent assisting me in putting everything together. Morgan spend endless hours assiting me for quite some time, she took time from her life to make sure I had everything I needed to fight and do well at my hearing. Dr. Bash took the time and effort to put together an opinion that I would say is a piece of art. I will do my best to check in until I get better, then I hope to spend more time contributing again.

I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life. The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.

In Memoriam Stretch Posted September 23, 2008 In Memoriam Share Posted September 23, 2008 Congratulations Don. StretchJust readin the mail Excerpt from the 'Declaration of Independence' We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
