It looks like I have a partial answer about my claim for disability. I had my appointment with the Decision Review Officer on November 3...what I was told is that he can do several things: he can just decide to re-evaluate my compensation and give me a new rating without any future appointments; he can recommend me for more Compensation and Pension appointments to let them to make a new determination, or he can just recommend that my compensation level remains the same and close the case. Well, I did get an initial response: I have 4 additional C&P appointments in January. So, I should find out sometime after January 13....
A few years ago I was presented with the opportunity to come back to Stratford, Iowa, to First Baptist church, as their pastor; for those of you who have followed this blog for some time, FBC in Stratford was my first pastorate. Let's just say I prayed about it as I was jumping at the opportunity. The church has a parsonage, so I could live there and not have to worry about a houe payment; and I needed to slow down, and this was a part time position (which, as a side note, allowed for me to get a greater disability from the VA than when I was working full time with St. Croix Hospice...) We love Stratford, and absolutely love the church; the people are wonderful and accepted us, again, with open arms. This was, for me, the perfect position: I get to pastor a church I LOVE, I get to do life with people I LOVE, and I have already had the opportunity to do weddings and baptism services for kids (adults now) that I have known their entire lives. IT IS GREAT. The longer I have been here,
That is messed up, i had went home after i was fired and applied for compensation, then the mother pf my child pasted that same week, and they still havent given me compensation and such. Me personally i think they should just give you the compensation and quit giving u the run around
