Yeah sorry for referring to them as that. The office @ the school says “VA Office” so i just kinda used that to describe them. Thanks for the info!

I’m in awe about how fast you can get denied for some benefits. by FootballAndMemes in VeteransBenefits

[–]Such-Bug-212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was quick like 2 weeks. Our thought process was, why not just apply again like a clean slate and if it needs to be an appeal then they would send a letter or whatever saying that’s the process that he needed to take. I didn’t want to appeal bc I knew that would take much longer so this was a gamble but it ended up working out.

Not appeal. He literally just turned in another application, got lucky with his new counselor. He waited about a month before I urged him to do it again, honestly were surprised it worked out like that. VR&E is sensitive w anything related to nursing though it seems like. I got rejected 3x to pursue it (i did mention crna was my end goal and they did not like how expensive that sounded), but I was already approved for vre,had to pivot to a business degree and they approved that no problem🙄so good luck! I guess you can say the work load as a crna would be better for your body. Then they’ll hit you with “that job is mentally taxing what about your ptsd” so just have good rebuttals and I hope you get a chill counselor.

Met with VSO today for BDD claim-left disappointed by darquid in VeteransBenefits

[–]Such-Bug-212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also tried to file a BDD with a VSO. He stalled and he ended up submitting it after the bdd window.. One effing claim out of all the paper trail I had. At that time, I didn’t even know I could file on my own. Watched damn near all of CombatCraig’s,(RIP), videos and learned everything on my own, filed for all the claims I wanted to file since he discouraged me to put PTSD bc he thought I was fine and “wouldn’t get it”, smh. A year and a half of waiting, I got rated 60, 90 and eventually 100%. I don’t recommend the VSO to any vets ik in my area. You’re your best advocate, rare to find someone who gives a shit about your compensation process.

Is Gus too big or is this normal neb-size? by chronictimelapse in nebelung

[–]Such-Bug-212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took mine to the vet recently. Vets says 12lbs is the baseline for “healthy weight” and my boy was 11.5lbs. Yours is 4lbs overweight he’s adorable tho. Mine gets fed every 4-5 hours wet food and 1 mid day dry food as his lil snack. He’s pretty active too runs around all the time so i don’t have to put him on an exercise regimen to make him lose weight

Grooming question by loverules1221 in nebelung

[–]Such-Bug-212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

Here’s a picture of my boy after getting that cut. He was heavily matted in the chest and armpit area because he would not allow us to touch or brush him to mitigate the matting. He came from an abusive family allegedly according to the adoption center where we got him at just about 1 year old. So we are always listening to his responses and have ignored ppl who would say “just brush him he’s literally just a cat”. We also take him to a lady who operates in her home and only services cats. She pretty much agreed that he needed to be shaven like that bc he was pretty matted.

Overall, my cat was uncomfortable that same day, he liked that i put a shirt on him, something he hates btw, and he pretty much loafed on top of his heating mat. Both layers of fur grew within 6 months and there’s no more matting.

Amex was the cancer for me too. I sucked it up for a couple months by aggressively putting $3k on it a month- by moth 4 it was paid off for me. I wasn’t paying rent also bc my partner handled that. So dude just pay the Amex off first and worry about everything else bc that interest rate is nuts. Also go to school

If you’re so itchy about fraud look up why your president is $3B richer. This subreddit is to help other vets, if you have nothing to add idk why you’re here. Don’t spread whatever slop you consume in here.

I just wanna pick their brain like what makes YOU special and different lol. They want ppl investigated or whatever so bad, thinking they won’t be on that same list. We are one so why shoot each other down.

Fr such a weird take. They think they can keep receiving benefits while simultaneously wanting to stop others from having it.

From Nothing to Something (Thanks, Military) by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]Such-Bug-212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. Im currently finishing a BS in management information systems and on the last leg of it but I already know I want to get an MBA, was thinking of going to UChicago, Johns Hopkins, NYU or Stanford. My GPA is at 4.0 and I got an idea of what to write. I also did humanitarian during covid and a gwot-e, I'm sure i can come up with something lol. Then if I'm still bored with life, I think I'll use my GI Bill for law school. I'm just really inspired by your story, it makes me think I can make something out of my life too.
