ATTENTION all veterans...
....Time to FALL IN for Muster on the MS deck.
Question? Are there other veterans here interested in say a weekly thread by for and about us veterans with MS?
If we can have a good musters here, maybe Sparky will set us up with our own Vet forum. Hey that would make threads regarding Veterans topics much easier to find in the friendly seas of MSworld. Sparky, get your janitor ready!
As veterans we have some different situations than most civilian MSers. We deal with the VA and some of us get our medical care thru VA medical Centers, issues of getting help with disability and pensions etc.
Lately the VA seems to be trying harder to give us MS care, at least for me that seems to be the case at my local VA clinic and VAMC in Ann Arbor mi.
The VA web site..... (link below) list notice of free monthly educatinal conference calls. While no specific info is list currently for Sept 2010, it does state they are on the second Monday of each month. I just checked an so far no topic etc shown for Sept, just Aug, but keep checking, that may get updated (I hope) this week after the Labor Day holiday.
