“I get great service from the VA myself.”

Same here. Had cataracts both eyes to the point of total blindness in 2002. VA to the rescue. NOW both eyes the lens muscles failed, and the lenses have dropped. Minimal sight in one eye only. VA will be taking care of it in October.

Was going in for surgery yesterday per previous schedule, but my wife got knocked on her butt by a spooked horse, so had to cancel to take care of her. Rescheduled to October. VA has been very accommodating.

Wife is up, and about. Walking with a limp, but already tossed the walker aside. Tough ol’ gal at 72.

I’m not quite sure what all that has to do with this story and the thousands of other stories regarding substandard care for vets. Unless this is an attempt to discredit those who did not receive top shelf treatment like you.
