0 HadIt.com Elder GBArmy Posted September 7, 2020 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hi KellyD I don't know if you realize it, but you posted the same question 3 times. Once usually will get a response. So, lets be a little clearer on what your issue is. What kind of benefits do you seek? Your husband passed from cancer, was stationed at CLJ when; what years, how long? When were you married? Was he disabled by the VA and if so, when, and what were his disabilities?

0 Moderator broncovet Posted September 7, 2020 Moderator Share Posted September 7, 2020 Kelly, Welcome to hadit. Yours is a good question, but like GBArmy said, we may need more to give a great answer. My first question, you posted: Quote Camp Lejeune with a favorable finding on my claim for widow's benefits but it did not give me any benefits what is the reason and what can I do to fix the problem to have a valid claim for Camp Lejeune qualifying my husband's death being cancer Did you get a VARO decision which stated a "favorable finding"? It may help to post the decision, redacting your private information. Its possible this was an "award" and you need only wait for your DIC to arrive. We really cant tell for sure, tho, unless you post the decision. You said the decision "did not give you any benefits". Was this a denial? What were the reasons for denial?

0 Berta Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I assume the VA acknowledged his exposure to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune but maybe his type of cancer is not on this list: (source https://www.va.gov/disability/eligibility/hazardous-materials-exposure/camp-lejeune-water-contamination/) You may be able to get disability benefits if you meet all of the requirements listed below. Both of these must be true. You: Served at Camp Lejeune or MCAS New River for at least 30 cumulative days from August 1953 through December 1987, and Didn’t receive a dishonorable discharge when you separated from the military And you must have a diagnosis of one or more of these presumptive conditions: Adult leukemia Aplastic anemia and other myelodysplastic syndromes Bladder cancer Kidney cancer Liver cancer Multiple myeloma Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma Parkinson’s disease We have a full DIC forum here and I will find the Read First page.

0 Berta Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I am a widow of a Marine myself and have many posts in the DIC forum...these guys are right -we need more info- It would help us if you can follow the advise here to scan and attach the decision as to the evidence list and their reason for denial. Cover your C file , name, address, prior to scanning it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
