What is odd to me about this is that the Only thing VA seemed to do right for my husband is to properly fill out the NYSDHE waiver form.
He only owed maybe less then 800 hundred bucks but was told, after he got SSDI,not to keep paying it yet they called here relentlessly after he became totally disabled for payment.
The form we took to a VA doctor , during a regular appointment, was checked off as to Total and Permanent disability due to his 1151 stroke,by the doctor who also turned to me and said' that 30% for PTSD is way too low ' but I told him Rod had already applied for a higher PTSD rating.
That waiver became significant evidence for me after he died, as the VA will not apply a General Counsel Pres Op to my claim until they grant 100% P & T for the stroke.
I recently advised POTUS and the former Sec that the director called me twice to say he was Total but not Permament for the stroke ( a contributing factor to his death), and offered no evidence he had been suddenly cured by VA for the brain damage it caused, and I reminded her that 100% disabilities become Permanent at death.
In any event- that is my next battle with VA.Unless they put ischemic stroke on the AO presumptive list and I have made a very strong argument to support that with Sec Shulkin and with the new possible Secretary.
