    How do you feel about asking for help?

    Does asking for help hurt your pride, or are you past that now?

    What is the most unusual or memorable thing you’ve ever had to ask for help with?

    I asked the va for help and I was told that my service connected disability wasn’t high enough to get any help. I served aboard a aircraft carrier and everyday we smelled jet fuel fumes coming into our shop.  Then on the other side of our shop was the paint locker where paints and solvents were stored and issued.  We would smell the fumes from the paints and solvents all the time.

    The va told me that didn’t have anything to do with causing parkinson disease.

    O well
