Has anyone gone this route and > what were their dealings with Veterans hospitals? Bob, If you would like to e-mail or mail me a copy of your letter request to the VA hospital in Batavia, NY. I work in Batavia, not too far from the VA hospital. Sometime after work if I have some extra time, I can make a stop and talk to someone there for you and pass along your letter and let you know what they say. Bill -- William L.
