Navigating the VA with ALS
If you are a veteran with ALS, it’s very important that you understand that your condition likely qualifies you for 100% disability and compensation from the VA, regardless of your branch of service or what job you did while in the military, as long as you have 90 continuous days of active duty.

The storm rages around me
Battering body and pride
It seeps deep into my skin
But I refuse to hide
Challenge is my armor
Against this new found foe
And I’ll gladly stand against the wind
As it tries to strip my soul
The tempest does not let up
It has become a daily fight
But I’ll face the storm head on
until I see the light
