BVA Provides Needed Help
As a new member of BVA, having recently lost much of my sight
as a result of Agent Orange, I am trying to educate myself on
veterans issues. I never thought this would happen to me at this
point in my life. Nevertheless, it has happened, and I must learn
to prevail and move on. With the help of the service officer from
BVA in San Diego, Bill Montgomery, I received an 80 percent rating
in only 75 days from the date of my claim. Bill has become a vital
representative in helping me use VA Blind Rehabilitation Services.
As a result, I have dealt better with my low vision and workplace
issues. Bill is a great guy and a valuable asset to your organization.
In addition, Richard Hardy, VIST Coordinator with the San Diego
Healthcare System, has gone out of his way to help me get the
aids I need to move on in my life.

Vets Need Scriptalk
Its time we, as an organization, made sure that blinded
and other disabled veterans need the Scriptalk audible prescription
readers have these prosthetics available for daily use.
Do your part. Ask your clinics, Blind Rehabilitation Centers,
Service Networks, VIST Coordinators, Outpatient Specialists, and
literally anyone who will listen, to insure that the devices are
distributed through the system for use.
