How can my wife receive a stipend for assisting me? I am a 100% disabled veteran.

I need help. Cannot live alone. We were separated, but now she has to move back in. How does she receive stipend?

As a veteran, you're entitled to in-home care; VA usually contracts with one or two home health agencies in a veteran's area for everything from assisting with daily activities to Meals on Wheels. A few programs are available; one gives you a small budget to use as you need.

If your medical care is through VA, start with the social worker attached to your doctor's team. If not, contact the Social Work (not Worker) office.

Is your disability service related? Did you serve during Wartime?

Your county should have a VA office. Call them and see if a rep can visit u at your home. Make sure you have all military records available.
