Doug Bolton, the founder of the blog, Signs of Hope, which is at www.dailysignsofhope.com, has written a new book, “Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life.” It reaches out the many military and veterans who may be battling anxiety, fear, depression, addictions, rejections, and the many other usual suspects. There are 22 military connected suicides every day. That is almost one every hour. Doug wants to help stop those statistics.

VA Offers Oxygen Therapy for PTSD.

I am a board member for the Victory for Veterans Foundation. We have been sharing about this wonderful new way to help our veterans called Oxygen Therapy.  Go to www.victoryforveterans. org and check it out.

It is called HBOT. It is a procedure that increases the oxygen to the body by placing the patient in a pressure chamber.  Oxygen therapy encourages healing by directing more oxygen to specific areas of the body, such as the brain or muscles. It can even be used to treat carbon monoxide poisoning, burns, wounds, and skin grafts.

Oxygen Therapy shares new hope for our veterans.

Veterans ID card Program Delayed

The VA announced in December that due to an overwhelming demand for the new ID card, they would have to regroup. You can send them an email at vets.gov for updates on the progress of getting the program more ready. There is no timeline for when they will running again.

Vets Put Their lives on the Line, Now Their Lungs May on the Line

I have a personal story from this a very good friend who was in Afghanistan  had an honorable discharge, and even started working as a fireman.   He developed chest problems and had a hard time breathing. He went to a VA doctor and he said he had COPD and a very serious infection in both of his lungs.

He was told he needed two lung transplants. This is still ongoing.

The  soldiers are told help your country first. Worry about the risks and liabilities come later.

For many veterans, like my friend,  the risks and liabilities are now lung diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and pulmonary  Fibrosis.

The latest generation involved in desert fighting are experiencing and even higher occurrence of lung disease.

  • I will be keeping you   updated on how my friend is doing so subscribe so you can get a report right to your inbox.
