Initially, things had not gone so well with assistance from VAA. When we needed further help after the actual Veterans Administration denied a claim my father for their Aid and Attendance program, Renee stepped up to the plate, along with Allen, to assist me in trying to salvage and re-open the claim for my dad. Renee is willing to listen and go the extra mile; above and beyond! We were initially referred to the VA's Aid and. Attendance program with help from my father's medical social worker from Kaiser Permanente (dad is currently under hospice). Time was truly of the essence! If it wasn't for the dedicated support from Renee and her colleagues at VAA, we'd have been lost. It looks as if my father's claim was finally approved and and we are awaiting an official letter from the VA now. If you meet the requirements and qualifications, especially for the VA's Aid and Attendance program, go for it! Especially if there is a serving spouse involved who may be entitled to a smaller pension should the service member pass on. Because they are a legitimate and hard-working non-profit group, a donation in kind, espescially upon an official award of benefits, would be the very least one could do to reflect their appreciation and thanks!
