Viet Nam agent Orange Claim

Has any one successfully settled a claim with the VA for esophagus cancer? I filed my claim back in 2010 when I was first diagnosed. I have an attorney working on it now.

I was wondering if by any chance did the Dr's tell you how long you had to live, or if you had any masses. Thank You

Hi chief

How can I get a copy of your book? My husband has his last week of treatments next week - then a break - then the surgery. He has done really well with treatments but I am very concerned about the surgery. Your book would help us know what to expect.

I too have survived EC 18 years major surgery esophajectomy w/ gastric pull. The complications they don't know or tell you about is what trips you up. what to eat and how much, the hernia's nerve damage, I'm surviving not complaining I thank God every day I wish I could spend more time helping out survivors but work gets in the way. I also will answer any questions sent.

Seeing that you are a 13 year survivor gives me hope
