Publisher Description:
"I used to pray for somebody to speak out, stand up and voice the concerns of so many Veterans and their families like ours. Then I realized.....I am somebody." - derived from quote by Lily Tomlin, Actor The dream of every writer is to have their heart type the words for them...and, as the voice of so many Veterans and their Families, my heart would not stop "writing" until our family's VA story was told. My Husband of sixteen years, James Anthony Caldon, the Father of our three children, served with the Navy Seabees Mobile Construction Battalion in Vietnam in 1968. In January 1987, while we were building our dream home in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, our lives, as we knew it and dreamed of for many years, suddenly disappeared ....forever. My Husband was diagnosed with Stage IV, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma - certified by the VA as "service-related due to exposure to herbicide" - commonly known as "Agent Orange." Our young children were just 2, 4 and 6 years old. I am now in my nineteenth year fighting for my VA DIC Spousal Benefits through insurmountable and never-ending paperwork and total disregard to the facts by the VA Claims System. I will continue to encourage all Veterans and their Families - who each have their own story - to live each day remembering....through relentless faith, love, and perseverance, your family, just like ours today, will, one day, know, "The Impossible Dream" is, indeed, "Possible." "With GOD, all things are possible." - Matthew 19:26
