Excuse me, did you say miscarriage???!!!

Army health care in it's finest hour..........

Published on August 18, 2005 By Spc Nobody Special In Humor

So I'm still Army for all of one more day, when I get the bright idea to copy my medical files before turning them in permenantly tommorow. I'm cruising along xeroxing past my hospital stay for pneumonia, when I run across the line spontaneous abortion.......WTF???

According to my records, apparently I visited the hospital sometime in the last 6 months for a D and C following my third miscarriage...........who knew? Apparently the fact that I haven't yet been knocked up and oh...yeah, I'm a man never entered their mind while misfiling some poor lady's paperwork (which I'm sure will never find it's way back to her records.) It seems odd that they didn't at least bring it up during my paperwork review at my ETS physical.

Sigh........and I'd make a GREAT mommy too. Oh well, maybe I'll make it the next time................

Well, it can be a pretty sensitive issue.

I'm glad that you're dealing with this loss in a healthy way. Just know that we're all still here for you. Or at least, we're all still here. (ETSing REMF.

Hey, The Army says that you had a Miscarriage, so by-golly YOU HAD A MISCARRAIGE, SOLDIER!!!

I'm glad you thought to copy your records, too many don't and live to regret it.

Excuse me, if the army says you had a D and C, you are not a man, you are now classified as a woman, and you did get knocked up. Having been an Army Brat for 10 years, I know they never make a mistake.

ROFL!
