Comment on article about Testing Younger Adults...

Due to my history of degenerating early, when my daughter was working at Safeway last year, she fell while pushing carts through the parking lot because her "hip gave out." Safeway sent her to the E.R. where they did an x-ray, and was sent to follow-up with per primary. Everything checked out OK, but over the next year she continued to have bouts of excruciating pain in her hip joint. Just before she joined the ARMY, I took her to be evaluated by a P.T./Chiropractor (mostly for my peace of mind) but he was very concerned about the popping and clicking noises he heard on eval. He suggested we get a follow-up x-ray (one year post original fall) to see if there had been any degenerative changes during the year so we could send her off to boot camp with a clean bill of health. Her doctors REFUSED to order the x-ray stating the original was fine. Needless to say, I am furious with our people. She leaves for boot camp next month. I will continue to pray...ALOT!
