    Hanging on sort of

    I was told before Christmas the VA was granting me S-C for MS.
    U had several C&Ps The last was over a month ago and not a word (or dime) since.

    My reg web acess has not worked for 4 weeks, my cari is on its last leg. While a few minor thing are ok ( not great). The main biggies are just not happening.

    I put in to get co-pays removed based on current income. Since then the VA has been taking out charging me twice as much as before. Just can not win.

    Had another fall, actually twice in one night that sent me to ER.
    Not much going my way these days. My marshmallow has to be pre-flight even before local gro trips. I NEED newer wheels and more.

    Using cell phone to type this etc.

    Gomer,
    I've been wondering what was going on with you. Hopefully, they will come though. If necessary, send a follow up email to Secretary Hickey asking for status. Since MS has a minimum of 30% they should be able to send you that much and then augment it in the future.

    So sorry ...

      Sorry have to use reply w/quote as reg reply button not working.

      Michigan ranks dead last in vet bennies of ALL 50 states. No wonder WHY!!!!

      Took 4yrs & multiple trips to get a manual wc. At least when the VA eventually came thru it a very nice one.
      Since when does the VA do what would seem logical??

      The past 2 years have been a mess!!! A huge nitemare of sorts.

      My lakeland pad i will have to give it away due to vandals. Ins did not begin to cover damages, i can not afford trips or even to fix or replace my car. Maybe i can unload it for a song just to get out of related expenses. On top of that i am holding off Bank of A. Just to keep our home up here.

      My reg web access quit working a month ago. No support but they drafted my payments last month & again this month and it still is not working???? So i am paying for web access and no getting it!!!!!

      Later gator

        Michigan Veteran Affairs made The Early Bird this morning. They set up a special hotline for Michigan vets.

        Here is the link: http://www.detroitnews.com/story/new...fits/70752468/

        There is a phone number in the article. Call it, jump on the wagon and hold on tight.

          Gomer, know that you are greatly missed. Please hang on, I am not a Vet so I do not understand most of what is said here. I just wanted to let you know that you are missed!

                I again have faster web access. My youngest son moved back home for a while and with him came a cable modem.

                K-again, I just checked the link and it rings very true for me. THANKS!
                Especially the part about the culture of denial at Detroit RO.
                My claim is now 3+ years not counting needless 2 yr delays caused by PVA.

                I just wish they would hurry up so I can move forward.
