Originally posted 2014-06-19 19:51:22. I have a surgery scheduled…finally. He will go in and see what it is and go from there. Once I find out what it is and if he needs to remove anything, fix anything, etc…then my daughter will be there. My husband will be a phone call away. We can’t afford for him to take a day of work off. Our health insurance is through his employer and is based off…

He has only been out of the Marine Corps for one year and it hasn’t been the easiest of transitions. The…

We hit it off. I was living about 3 hours away from him. He was in the Marine Corps at the time. Somehow he managed to come see me nearly every weekend. With the…
My husband is one of many having to deal with the long drawn out process of filing claims through the VA. I am not understanding why it takes so long for them to process these claims efficiently and fair to the veteran. I realize they have had to try and save funds money but it shouldn’t be on the backs of the ones that put their lives on the line. I have seen a lot…
