There is a VA form for ‘Aid and Attendance’. You can find it at: va.gov/forms
That form with letters from your doctors should get you an allotment for your wife as a caregiver...Best of luck PO3 Wayne Esping, Nancy

Your post is not clear. Are a Vietnam era veteran or Vietnam veteran? Did you have the VFW, DAV, or VVA help you with your claim?

If possible…. Go to this website and search for “Aid and attendance”. Some of These guys are former VA employees and are a wealth of knowledge for us vets!! Great website!
It’s called “Veterans Benefits Network”
