VA benefits compensation

Hey guys;
Just wanted to let you know that after about 4 years I am finally, and hopefully, getting a 100% disability rating for my coronary artery disease. It has affected my heart to the point that I am unable to work, thus the higher rating. I'm on oxygen 24/7 and unable to do many household chores. I'll not go into detail but I did get 100%.
I did go thru DAV as they were my agent, so to speak. I also joined a local chapter to further involve myself with other hard cases. My work will be miniscule tho compared to others.
The best advice I can offer? Hang in there, Saturday's coming.

Congrats,Bud. Welcome to the "100%" club.
I'll be seeking for oxygen help myself.

Hey there Lefty!
Sorry it has taken me so long to respond to your congrats but it may have been to hasty. I got my 100% but not sure when it begins. Seems I'll have to go to a VA court and show how disabled I am. That could take 2 more months from what I hear. The way I've been feeling lately with my breathing disability they may just be waiting for me to pass away.
But I have an "ace in the hole". I trust and rely on my Lord and Savior knowing that He can and will get me through this and in due time I'll get my due. So I'll just wait. All is kosher right now. Have a good one.
