It doesn't hurt to try. They will probably have a staff member whose responsibilities include veterans affairs. When you write and call, find out who that person is and ask to talk with her, and ask if they can help and if they have any suggestions, and stay in touch. I hope so.

VA turned my Dad down too, its the de fault first response I think.

You're so lucky you have those Senators!

Best luck. Aloha.
