Sorry...I don't know who else to ask!

So I filled out a VA document for Hubby's VA medical benefits and I tried to print it off. This is what came up:

Start FREE 30-day trial to download document

*Frown* Why can't I just print it from my computer? I've tried over and over, but

Start FREE 30-day trial to download document keeps coming up. I can't even save it! It took a long time to get all the info and fill it out, I just hate to lose it!

Any suggestions?

Returning Poet PNG - Good advice. There are definitely some shady programs with "free trials". Their goal is to suck you in by saying it's free, but somehow trick you into paying anyway. Cubboo! I'm guessing this program is trying to suck you in with the convenience of having the PDF file already filled out. If you download the blank PDF file and fill it out yourself, it would be free, albeit a pain. But if it's asking for payment info upfront and you're not sure how easy it will be to cancel it, might not be worth the risk.
Thank you, Anni Pon , Returning Poet PNG , LinnAnn -book writer , and Battywyn🎶 !!! I finally decided to delete the form and start over. IT WORKED! I appreciate all your help and suggestions very much! *Hug1**Smile**Hug2*
Cubboo! - I'm glad you got the issue sorted. If technology makes our lives much better and easier than this, we won't be able to live at all.

Congratulations!!!

It's been a tough week (and we all have them) as we had to come home early from camping due to an erupting cyst on the back of Hubby's neck. We got home Monday evening and he was able to get into to see his doctor on Tuesday. He met with a surgeon at the hospital on Wednesday who said it was highly infected. They put him out on Thursday and removed it. They also discovered he has Afib, so he'll have more tests coming up in the near future. On Friday, we went to the hospital again so the surgeon could check it, plus they showed me how to pack the empty socket with gauze every morning till it closes. *Shock2*

Also, one of our nephews was in a motorcycle accident and had a stroke. He also has five broken ribs and a bruised lung.

Our other nephew just found out he has melanoma and also cancer in his lymph nodes, lungs, legs, and I'm not sure where else. This is devasting news.

Anyway, prayers are appreciated!

WDC is my escape. I'm so happy to be here! *Heart*

Sending lots of love and healing light. I'll keep ya'll in my daily prayers. *Hug* *Heart* *praying*
