Helplessness And Sah For Loss Of Use Both Lower Extremities

[Dorothy Kansas]

What else can I do Its has been almost 1yr since I was awarded SAH. Why did I not receive the rating for loss of use. I don't understand this I should have 2 ratings for loss of use and aid and attendance which I have had in effect for 8 yrs for something different.

I am paying for my own aids bec ause the paid hired agency aids and nurses keep sealing my medication. They are lazy. I am going bankrupt. I want to use my housing grant but I need money to pay the differnce when my home sales. Please someone help me.

If there is a chance -they might have made a CUE in their decision that the SSOC was based on and by challenging them and asking them to CUE themselves-that could mitigate losing any SSOC response deadline.

If they didn't consider all of the evidence you could say they committed a CUE regarding the Evidentiary regulations.

Allan just posted them here I believe, 38 USC 4.3 and 4.6 might help you do that.

If VA does that to me again with my new claim (Ignore my evidence) I will immedfiately be asking them to go CUE themselves up the ying yangs.

I have been really sick missed my deadline in responding to a SSoc. I have fought for 7 years on this issue and now all my retro may be lost. I had to fire my attorney and my new SO doesn't return my calls. I can't believe no one is familiar with entitlement for loss of use when you are granted SAH. I have A/A for helplessness. Now my disease process has caused the loss of use of both lower extremities. Please help if you can.

You are still in my prayers. I wish I could help more but I really only know that if you don't ask for help you can't expect it.
