Granted
The Board granted service connection for the cause of the Veteran's death, finding that end stage renal disease was at least as likely as not due to active service.
The deciding factor: The positive medical opinions provided by Dr. J.W. and Dr. D.M., which concluded that the Veteran's end stage renal disease was related to his military duty, were found to be the most probative evidence of record.
