I am a Navy airman from the Vietnam War. I receive all my medical care at the VA hospital in Togus. Since new medical laws came out (which I have read, all eight pages), I have found about 10 things the doctors are supposed to do and are not.

My medications used to come on time, and now I have been out of them eight days (as of this writing). It used to take one day from Togus to arrive. I called on Thursday and it is Saturday now and still waiting. People I talk to there tell me one thing, but it is hardly ever true.

The levels of medications are being cut way down to where people suffer every day. The government has no idea what they have done. Doctors and hospitals are all going through hell because management doesn’t know what they are doing. My level of medication has been decreasing for the past three months, to a level where I might as well be taking aspirin.

I have tried calling everyone; even wrote to the head person at Togus. I have called people in Ohio and Pennsylvania and applied for help in other states for years. I get no help from anyone.

Yes, President Donald Trump is really helping the Veterans Administration alright. Too bad he wasn’t a veteran. Veterans were due a three-percent raise in January. I am still waiting.

It isn’t just me. Go to Togus and listen. You won’t find any happy veterans.
