Hello there,
I am currently a caregiver for my veteran who has been diagnosed with ALS. We have 2 children ages 9 and 8. Due to unfortunate circumstances that has happened, we had to tell the children that their dad will eventually pass away from this disease. That was about 3 weeks ago. Anyways, the kids are having a really tough time. I would like to get the kids into counseling. So my question is: Does the VA offer counseling for the kids? How would I find that out? Should I contact my PVA rep and ask? Thanks.
