I am currently on appeal. My husband was a Vietnam Vet and was 100% perm and total disabled. He submitted his claim for EC in November, denied in February and died in March of last year. They denied the claim and since I am not unemployed, they have denied me and my daughter any financial support. I am very frustrated with the system. I have talked to doctors until I am blue in the face with no luck. How can I join the EC widows group? I believe there is power in number. I am not willing to give up at this point.
