Sweetie Pie, if writing letters to the VA is not working, you need to go in a different direction. Look up your US Senators and call their in-state office. Most have a designated person to help constituents and this sort of thing is what they are there for.

Annie so good to see you back!

Wow! I like the stories. Maybe someone can brake this information down and use it for cancer studies.

Some of the ages make me so sad, and angry at this dreaded disease. But it is proving my point to the medical field. DON'T DIAGNOSE BY AGE!

Once again thanks for all the great posts. Its so good to hear from everyone.
