Bless my friend

[sn-e3]

Guys and gals you all know the fear of going to the VA for the first time. Well my good friend George crawled out of his bunker for the first time in along time today and we went out to the American Lake Veterans Hospital and got George signed up and a quick checkup.. They perscribed some blood pressure meds and put him on the fast track to get him a primary provider. George is a 9th infantry vietnam vet. Who like so many others has been deathly afraid of the VA system. His words to me were something like " My dad said stay away from those guys at the VA they'll kill ya." then he told me his thoughts about the VA hospital being just like the Hospital in ONE FLEW OVER THE KOOKOO's NEST.. I'am happy to say he is very very pleased and has started the ball rolling for himself. I walked him through the whole ordeal and he could not believe how nice everybody there was. and to top it all off he seen one of his neighbors that he didn't know was being treated there so now he dosen't feel like an out cast or looser. He was so afraid that the VA would think he was begging. But now he knows he earned his rights and treatment with his service to our country.
