Welcome back!

A while back I wrote about some concerns that my husband and I had about our family member/friend Jess.

He is now in the Temple VA. Today he and we found out a lot about what had been going on when he had been in the Dallas VA. First, he had wanted to be in Temple all along. That got side tracked. Second he wanted his belongings. That got ignored.

There are things in process to get everything straightened out and his belongings to him where they belong. He still needs prayers. I am not able to tell everything that had happened, there is a lot of private stuff there. Please continue to pray for him.

My husband and I are concerned for our brother. He is in the Dallas VA in the TCUB. He has cancer, congestive heart failure, and blood clots. he says that he hasn’t been getting straight answers from any one. He is also concerned that the man he had been renting from was ripping him off.

The man has claimed Sonny’s van and his pets as his own. He claims that Jesse gave him the van, then he claims that he bought it, then he claims that it was traded for a motorcycle, then he claims that it doesn’t run. We can’t get a straight answer from him in any way shape or form. Prayers are needed.

Please pray for: James Moore (aka Jesse Two Moons)

The Veterans Administration is supposed to support and HELP the veterans of this country, the U.S.A. Yet when I look around, I see stories of the VA abuses or ignoring the same vets that have fought for our country.

Just read an article about the VA using veterans for guinie pigs (not sure how to spell that).Maybe I should spell it as the VA acting just as some doctors did during WW2. ABC did a report on some of it. I found out about it on a site called Off The Cuff.

Another thing it has been doing is to refuse treatment for things it has chosen to call ‘not service connected’ troubles. If the person was in the military, promises were made about medical treatment being available. Now the vets are finding out that this promise was nothing more than empty promises. This is a shameful way to treat those who have served us, not just the idea of “country”, but US as individuals.

I went to school in the 1960s and the 1970s. I remember seeing peace symbols, marches, protesters, flowers, news clips, upset people. I wonder how the veterans from those years feel now? These days we try to appreciate our veterans. We should not forget all the older veterans and their families.

I am female and have never been in the military; but I appreciate that I am not enslaved or treated like trash because I’m not the same as everyone else. Our veterans, all veterans, are the ones who’ve made it possible. I can’t forget my freedom. I’m not always able to show my thanks to any vet I see. Not all vets are plainly marked to be recognized. Thousands of people, men and women, don’t advertise the fact of being a vet. It’s like being an officer of the law in at least two ways. Well, definitely more in fact:

1) It’s dangerous
2) Not everybody is willing to do the job.
3) It is a necessary job.
4) Many have families.
5) Some die or are hurt irreparably.
6) They are all human beings.

9-11 made us aware that we are not alone on the planet. We need to be aware that others do not agree with our beliefs. Criminals and terrorists are not compassionate, they don’t care or forget. They don’t care if others get hurt; nor do they forget what they want to do. We can’t afford to forget either.
