HadIt.com Elder cowgirl Posted January 18, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 18, 2010 KUDOs to WINGS, ya done it again - you are an Angel! Wings, your last pushes of wisdom and encouragement were a huge help in my claim...so I have you to thank as well as the BVA and our higher power, and myself for putting it together and not giving up against all odds. BTW, it is okay to thank myself, for if I had never tried for this widow's pension, I would not have received one! To thine own self be true! I knew it would be a landmark...which is why in the bottom of my heart I was ready for total rejection and VA denial. Apparently I had enough evidence that they could not turn me down - once somebody finally read it. The tone of the document goes on like a roller coaster - pro items, then con items and all, but in the end my brief's and proof won out. I read hints to me that I should follow up on the items I told them to cue themselves on, as well as an old claim from 1969 that I never heard of. I will chase those issues of course. I will post the document as soon as I can. Thanks again for all your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Doctor's, Kelly, Zollman and Fraser --along with your lay evidence all tipped the scale to resolved the benefit of the doubt. Very good work, you fought the good fight!! ~Wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted January 23, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 23, 2010 Amazing when the Judge go half way or as they claim the benefit of the doubt. I cannot express how happy I am when I see a spouse get DIC it makes it look worthwhile this struggle we have with the VA that never seems to end even when we win.
