My husband, a V.N. Vet died of colon cancer at 52. I finally won my claim this year after 12 years.

Can you please tell me who helped you in your case? My father, a Vietnam vet, died of colon cancer at age 58. Thank you.

My mom has also been unsuccessful with my Dad's VA claim. He died of Stage IV Colon Cancer in 2009 and my Mom has been desperately seeking benefits ever since. He was exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam as the VA has already acknolwedged his exposure, but they will not recognize the connection between colon cancer and agent orange. How did you finally win your claim?!?! Please, any info would help so much!

My husband is also a Vietnam Vet who has stage 4 colon cancer and was repeatedly sprayed with agent orange. Please help us also with this issue. This is not a disease that is listed to have a link but he has not particular family history or other risk factors. We believe there is a link. Christine
