Mom: VA ‘abandoned’ veteran amid health crisis

SHERIDAN, Mich. (WOOD) — Sana Gaffney is fed up with the VA, saying she had to take it upon herself to find her son, a U.S. Army veteran, the care he needs.

Adam Davis, 28, of Sheridan, suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and a rare medical condition. When his mother turned to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs after he suffered a recent breakdown, finding treatment proved difficult.

“He served his country, he did his duty. But they’re not upholding their end of the deal. They’ve abandoned him,” Gaffney told 24 Hour News 8 Monday.
