2018, iirc. he was dx'd w als. he was living in his rv in a friend's driveway.
it took about 2-3 most to get the paperwork through, and he was checked in at the portland va hospital and given full benefits. they got him out and into assisted housing for a while, but it didnt work out well. died there in peace, his new wife at his side, like every other day.

he was a grunt in nam, and had to prove exactly nothing.
i assume these new rules work the same way. you have the listed dx, you get the care.
fuck us all if it doesnt work that way everywhere.
i'm guessin by 24, it will be pretty well fixed.
