Re: Disability – Jane Doe
I am the Outreach Patient Advocate for the International Adhesion Society and have been assisting
Jane with her medical and physical needs since she started to suffer disabling symptoms in 1991!
I have responded to these updates previously and I understand the necessity of such updates. I will
tell you this regarding your Veteran, Jane Doe and any future changes in her health situation. Jane
will probably die before she is able to secure any type of medical intervention that will save her life,
even at this stage. There is no known procedure that can abort the debilitating physical
deterioration that Jane is experiencing!
I invite you to forward these questionnaires to me as timely as necessary for you reviews of the
disability claims of veterans…but I also want you to take a good look at these pictures of Jane.
Veteran of the United States of America, and know that this is one veteran who is most deserved of
our countries financial and medical support!
My observations of Jane’s symptoms/condition:
Jane was seeking medical intervention from a wide variety of medical care providers for urinary
bladder pain and incontinency. She had non specific abdominal/pelvic pain which did not respond
to treatment by any of the physicians she sought treatment from. Dates of medical visits are far to
numerous to track as Jane was presenting to medical appointments with doctors, to medical
centers for diagnostic testing and treatment attempts as well as surgical intervention. All this was
unproductive in offering her any relief from her abdominal/pelvic pain, urinary incontinency, gastro -
esophageal reflux disease, nausea, vomiting and fatigue.
Specific months, days and years are all one as for Jane, her life is in constant need of medical
intervention, her symptoms only increase in severity as time and lack of medical intervention, goes
on for her. It is almost ludicrous for you to be requesting information such as this, when all it would
take is to look at Jane’s photos and ask yourself who would or could employ her?
Her symptoms of chronic abdominal/pelvis pain increase over time, little effective relief has been
found for that symptom, her nausea and GERD increased due to medications prescribed for her
pain and her associated symptoms of urinary bladder and intestinal difficulties became worse as
she then started fecal incontinence following a surgery and that is now irreversible! Jane lives with
these symptoms with no site of effective medical intervention in site for her.
