AA/MDS Conference

I am going to the AA/MDS Conference in July. We have managed to get the attention of the Honorable Bob Filner, Chairman, US House Veterans Affairs Committee and hope to meet him while in DC.

The faxes requested are to tell your personal stories of what a nightmare it is to deal with the VA about MDS. He has requested the the Institute of Medicine explain to him what MDS actually is by June 17. We have managed to get above Veterans Affairs to their real bosses.

Actually, I am glad that they did not just grant me 100% T&P like they did for one of my friends and fellow 'Nam vet. Had they done that, I would probably never gotten involved in the fight for other Vietnam veterans with MDS. The next campaign will be to take on AA until MDS does me in.

TENACITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
