I have a co-worker that has family members in the military and it appears that he seems to understand how difficult my days are at work due to my PTSD. According to him, his brother is rated at 70%, it break his heart seeing his brother go through the problem (PTSD). His brother lives with his wife and 3 sons few hours from his house. He tries to be there for him, hoping to alleviate pressure on his sister-in-law.
Having said all this, after sharing my background and issue(s) PTSD, I mentioned that I have a PTSD exam coming up soon.
He offered to draft a short to the point lay letter to convey how difficult it is for me at work due to my PTSD.
Will a co-worker lay letter help my case-yes or no? How much weight does it have on my favor? How descriptive should he be in the letter, ex. worst days observation, etc?

Hi everyone,

This is his first written VA lay letter.
Thank you all...
