SSG Robert Mark Odom yea that's cool but they left out a group of Veterans from MAY 7, 1975- SEPTEMBER 10, 2001, which is not fair in my honest opinion. I have no clue why they did that. They do not QUALIFY!

Discuss and list absolutely everything the Caregiver does to support the disabled veteran. It can be cooking, cleaning, driving, purchasing food, medication management, keeping the veteran safe. Everything.
After the application is sent, you will probably be telephonically interviewed to discuss the veterans disability, appropriate medical care, and the Caregiver support. The true focal point is the disability. I have a 70% rating for PTSD and my wife gets $1000/month. If I was parapelvic the Caregiver funds will be much more. That interview in most cases will determine the amount funds you will receive.
I have tremendous gratitude for every penny I receive from the government. I don't have the pressure to work while having PTSD. I hope this gives you an overview and good luck.
