Suicides By US Veterans Are Still Tragically High

Despite the increased awareness of PTSD and other mental illnesses, despite a push by VA hospitals to do more outreach and offer better mental health care, and despite new technologies that aim to help our vets recover from mental illness, the number of suicides among veterans remains high.

Today I go to have my toenails clipped. It’s called old age. I can not bend down enough to clip my own. The old soldier is now 84, and feeling it. No war wounds, but pain from a jeep accident I had back in 1961. I am still trying to get the VA to give me compensation for that.

Never give up if you feel you should be getting compensation. I can see that they stall, and are hoping you will die before you get your just do. Don’t let them do that.
