and 2 steps back.....

This blog is dedicated to the hard work, perserverance and strong will of my daughter Bre. Bre has wanted to serve in the USAF for the last 5 years. She overcame HUGE obstacles (losing over 90#) to qualify for enlistment. Finally, the day came for her to be processed, she was SO excited. She swore into active duty.. what a thrill

Her first 3 weeks of BMT was uneventful, but after an unfortunate bout with dehydration, her right knee was discovered to be swollen. Within 48 hours she was transferred to med hold for evaulation and treatment. 10 weeks later, her knee was healed and she returned to training..

We were thrilled and excited to attend graduation, week 3 of BMT went by without a hitch, week 4 brought Warrior Week and off they went to be soldiers in the field! On Thursday of Warrior Week Breanna and several others were made to do "pushups until they dropped" and she tore her ACL in her right shoulder.

And its back to med hold... now, almost 8 weeks later, she is still there. What a rocky road she has been down...
