070917 -  ..
070918 - Visited Rhonda at the VA in Martinez.  She said these letters were a
070919 - mistake, and said she would schedule a follow up meeting with the
070920 - primary care physician.  Rhonda said there is nothing in the computer
070921 - to explain the purpose of the meeting, but she assumes the doctor
070922 - wants a follow up the meeting on 060317.
