Denied
The Board denied the appeal for restoration of a 100% rating for prostate cancer and also denied special monthly compensation based on need for regular aid and attendance, but granted SMC based on housebound status from August 1, 2019.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran required regular aid and attendance or was permanently housebound due to his service-connected disabilities.
