The Broken Soldier

Just got word, literally two minutes after writing the previous post, that my Community Base Health has been approved! Thank God. Longer time in, which does interfere with making future plans, but I can be treated here at home by some of the best medical professionals in the world. If there’s a way to make things better for me, I’m sure they will find it. I have renewed hope that things may get better. Mrs. Hickman, my case manager, and Mr. Serna, the warriors in transition ombudsman, deserve special thanks. Without their efforts, this would not have happened. I’d be stuck with a non-functioning spinal implant, and shoved off onto the VA’s already overburdened shoulders. Again, thank God.
