Limey - That cartoon says it all.
I'm headed back to the VA for a follow up with Oncology after my hospital stay next week. I'm also seeing Neuro for some test reports. Have I told you the latest?? The VA has started billing me for my meds and office visits! I've had to stop seeing my counselor because I was being charged $85 a visit. I have to get this straightened out. No wonder I keep having migraines and cluster headaches

How can this happen?? Does it have to do with you being back in active service?
I hope next week goes smoothly and you get good news, Sarge.

Good news today!!!! The VA has declared me 80% disabled. I draw my first disability check on Sep 1st.
I can remain in the Guard until a medical board next year & I am still deemed combat deployable. I pray I can get one last deployment in Africa or the Sinai before my board.

I never thought I'd be saying something like this, but I'm glad they found you 80% disabled.

Sarge, Now you go to Social Security and apply for benefits, after you have Med Eval. And retire.

Sarge that's wonderful.
I'm hoping for the same sort of result for my Dad; as said above it sounds a weird thing to celebrate, but I am happy for you. And Fargon has it right. Do your last tour then stay at home, safe. Well, okay, the roads and the kitchen ae dangerous places. More dangerous than fights to the UK, HINT HINT. Damn, with no danger pay you can't afford a flight any more than I can. Still, ifyou can get over here I know there'll be people to feed you and provide a bed. I know somw non-Dwellars who would help even. If'n you wanted to stay more than a day in this neck of the woods... I live in the least interesting place of all the English Dwellars. Although it does have the benefit of ME living here. Hope you're happy, Maury. Haven't heard from you in a while. You should have some post waiting. And hope there hasn't been any baby-mama-drama recently. At least you can tell the troublesome ones that you're now officially disabled, and any negative comments directed towards you are now prejudicial according to your status
