Originally chronicled as a condition affecting Vietnam veterans, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a relative newcomer to the field of mental health. Nowadays, PTSD is commonly used to describe a set of symptoms for survivors of terrorist attacks, plane, rail, or car crashes, as well as victims of rape, sexual assault or other forms of trauma. It has also been applied to emergency service workers as well as present-day returning veterans of Middle East combat.
Let's talk more about this... can you do me a quick 30-second favor and leave a comment below?
The Veterans’ Administration offers an Improved Pension with Aid and Attendance (A&A) benefit that is largely unknown. Unfortunately, this most important benefit is overlooked by many families with Veterans or surviving spouses who need additional monies to help care for ailing parents or loved ones. That’s why I’m so delighted to have Debbie Burak of www.VeteranAid.org on the show to tell you everything you need to know about this “pension benefit” that is not dependent upon service-related injuries for compensation. With money tight for most of us these days, you can’t afford to miss this show.
