My Great Uncle who was brain injured in a tank roll over,spent the rest of his life in & out of VA hospitals and nursing homes. My Grandmother (his sister) was his legal guardian. Many times she had to drive him hundreds of miles for evaluations and tests. He was 100% disabled. My Father (3 yrs his uncle's junior) who served in WWII, ended up 70% disabled from his loss of hearing from the big guns he shot till he lost most of hearing. Also from a fungal disease that he picked up overseas that could never be cured. And now 2 of my children are going through the hell that is the VA medical system. My daughter lost part of a finger and had her ankle shattered (and it never healed properly).My son who was over there the day the fighting started in Iraq (luckily he was in Kuwait the whole time) but he developed a disabling condition from running (a lot of runners get it & it can be cured surgically), but now he suffers from numbness, pain from adhesions and lower back pain from an injury in the Army. All they every seem to do when (and if ) he can see a DR is be given the runaround and some motrin. It is a nightmare, not only at Walter Reed, but at every VA Medical facility I've been in. Something has to be done!! THANK YOU for pointing out these articles. I have some letter writing to do. <br>And your puzzle is very professional looking. Quite spiffy.<br>Hugs, BarbAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825922717886711572.post-64268582803199428582007-02-22T07:18:00.000-08:002007-02-22T07:18:00.000-08:00I did work as a volunteer at a local V.A. and it w...I did work as a volunteer at a local V.A. and it was clean. I hope the matter of roach infestation and other problems will be addressed in short order. I will contact my Senators and Representatives to voice my opinion. markAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
