I believe what you say to be true and, sadly, it is not just your story and the thousands like it dealing with the VA and those to whom you have returned. It is endemic in nearly all paths that those who never went away follow with so many things which go , seemingly, unnoticed or at least unaddressed. It is a systemic breakdown which results in more and more so disgusted and discouraged that they finally drop out of trying to do anything about it.

My prayers are with you and those who fight this and I hope for blessings for you and relief or, the very least, understanding and comprehension from those who should be standing shoulder to shoulder in the effort to turn this around.

I listen to “supposed” ‘patriots’ who rant and rave everyday with no effort to change things, just speaking about things and doing nothing to research and put time or money into those who are trying to effect changes. I ask them why don’t they go to wherein the troops who are returning here to this land and shak their hands in wselcome and say to them the truth; that while they were away fighting for what they thought was our freedom, we wer busy paying no attention while it was being given away.

There are those who know what you say and do try to change things but not nearly enough. I hope that this reply from a civilian is okay as I am with you in what you are saying.

God bless all of you,

Michele
