Yes I sure can. It was not me that it happened to but to my uncle (he was like a father to me) and it happened a few years ago and I am still upset to this very day. He was diagnosed with pal-lops (not sure how to spell) on his colon, and he started getting treatment. It was further decided he had colon cancer. Well, the colon cancer was doing fine, and he was not having any recurrence of it after about a year, but lo and behold he kept getting sicker and come to find out he received a tainted blood transfusion from the VA and ended up with Hepatitis C and after just a few more months he died an agonizing death. I have no faith in the VA now and I just hate to hear about the men and women in this country who fought for us not getting A plus care. Who deserves it more than they do.?

The VA has been undercut for the past 16 years, which is why there have been so many problems. Thankfully, Obama fully funded the VA, proving that our sacrifices are just as important off the battlefield as they are in combat.
