Granted
The Veteran's service-connected disabilities render him so helpless as to require regular aid and attendance, thus granting special monthly compensation (SMC) based upon regular aid and attendance.
The deciding factor: The evidence established that the Veteran is unable to perform activities of daily living due to his service-connected conditions, necessitating regular aid and attendance from another person.
