Thank you kind Sir, @realDonaldTrump❤️it was long ago but if you had not reached me before the police officer I would not be here today. I was in NYC on the ground in excruciating pain, scared & screaming. I had to look scary indeed but you still had the courage to come to my

I have been briefed on the Record Cold Wave and Historic Winter Storm that will be hitting much of the United States this weekend. The Trump Administration is coordinating with State and Local Officials. FEMA is fully prepared to respond. Stay Safe and Stay Warm! President DJT
Take this storm seriously, folks. Moderate to major impacts are expected from the Central US through to the Northeast today through the weekend. - Hazardous to impossible driving conditions are expected. Avoid travel if at all possible. - Widespread closures and disruption to

@VinoNStrosGal @cremer_mary But that is just the thing my dear, once we are labeled or seen as complex we are no longer living in the true defination sense. We merely exist, sure we still think, we still feel but what purpose do we hold besides being one of the meal tickets for the medical industry. Complex

Exactly. When the “solution” being proposed risks serotonin syndrome, or a forced benzo taper after nearly two decades of stable use, that’s not care, it’s danger. I’ll be saying this directly to the head of psychiatry: destabilizing veterans to satisfy protocols can end lives.
@VinoNStrosGal Good God woman, have you asked the VA psych why they want to do this? What I found out the hard way, even when they have enough psych doctors is that they do not know what they are doing when it comes to serotonin levels, plus. It was back in 2005, September was the exact month

BTW Sir, @SecVetAffairs the attachment is some of what is wrong, and are the reasons I waited for 4 long months to see the Neuro Doctor on Monday Jan 12th at UPMC but it had to be rescheduled because again the wilkes-barre VAMC in PA, the Transportation office again refused to
@VinoNStrosGal That ride looks like heaven indeed, don't think I would even need a stretcher with those padded seats. Lol if the seat reclines my ribs wouldn't even be choking my lungs, and I wouldn't have to worry about passing out and screaming from the pain speeding over potholes causes. I

@patpacer @VinoNStrosGal Patpacer, if you have other forms of health care coverage like a private insurance plan, Medicare, Medicaid, or TRICARE, you can use VA health care benefits along with these plans. Learn more about how the VA works with other health insurance.
