[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 190849, member: 84"] I'm so sorry Jana was injured. Sounds like she's found her niche. I know you're worried with her in there, but I'm proud of her for not giving up due to her injury. My nephew messed up his knee about 2 yrs ago. (he's Army too, career) We thought that would be IT for him. I mean, what can you do with a messed up knee, right? And he doesn't have all that long til retirement. We expected a medical discharge, he expected a medical discharge but didn't want one. But instead they gave him the option of having the knee replaced. He's not as young as Jana. He's in his 30's, but still is quite young for replacement. Physical therapy they tried first. But they did the surgery and he worked a desk job while recovering. Turned out quite well. He's all healed now and training troops for combat. He most likely will never see combat again. I doubt he's all upset about that, he's already done several tours. But he will get to retire when the time comes and can still enjoy his career. I hope the therapy works for her. That is very painful. Hugs [/QUOTE]
