Partly granted
The Veteran is entitled to special monthly compensation from August 29, 2023, due to the need for regular aid and attendance of another person as a result of his service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows that the Veteran's weakness, reduced mobility, and deconditioning stemmed from hospitalization for diabetes in August 2023 and caused him to be in need of the regular aid and attendance of another person throughout the rest of the period on appeal.
