hello brothers and sisters , in arms
i am here once again to say the fight goes on ,
what does it mean when they tell you we have proof of your illness in your service records but we show no record of you being treated for this illness out side of service .
ok now you and i know what this means , specially when the only doctor you have seen sence being active is the va regional doctor and all of your medical records come from that one place , and you have several hundred pages of them treating you for the mystrious illness that they cant seem to find .
is it truely the fact that they are overwhelmed or are they just that , i got fed up with the we cant find in your medical records any proof of you being treated for this illness , so what i did was went to the release of information office where all records are there for you to get and i copied all the records pertaining to the illness they so called couldnt find and i , reopened the claim once again with there own statement as fuel against them , now they make it clear on the third page of the denial form reason as to why they couldnt approve my claim is that although they found proof of a illness in service they couldnt show where i was treated out of service and that if i could provide proof of treatent out side of service they would approve my claim . i sent all the records of my being treated for this illness along with the page from the denial letter whith their reason for denying me , to my congressman . he sent me a letter which was really heated in repsonce , i dont have to tell you how angry he was i nearly burned his fax machine sending the records via the fax machine and after reading the reason they gave for denying me . he opened a big can of
whats wrong with you guys on them . i called them to check the status of my claim and they tell me they cant say its under congressional investigation . now they cant say that they never recieved the records from me because i sent them the very same copy i sent to the congressman and i highlighted each page with yellow high lighter along with adjoining pages of meds for same illnesses and made it know that i had contacted him where do you guys think this will end . i figured this would be good reading as to what they would do or say next . i am awaiting their response .
the congressman sent me a reponse letter telling me he was happy to be of service and that he couldnt believe what he had seen and read and that they had decided the way they had but that he would be following the progress of my claim and watching them .
still fighting the lung disease and i am still here every day is a new day and jesus is where i look for the ability to get up in the morning , i will continue to fight until i cant do so any longer they train us to stand fast and bring the fight if nessasary , we wouldnt back down then, why would we do so now .
i was told by a vet freind of mine they look for us to die out before anything can be done or if they deny you enough you will have died before you could have really made a differance .
i dont think so even if i dont get approved , i will go smiling knowing i took it to them and they will be tired of looking at my name on appeals and reopened claims .
