I just spoke with Nancy Lessin at www.mfso.org and she is helping me with Michaels scenario and my free speech rights concerning them...she told me she was on the phone with another mother whose son just got BACK FROM IRAQ, HAS BEEN BURNED OVER HALF OF HIS BODY, IS IN THE HOSPITAL AND THEY ARE SENDING HIM BACK TO IRAQ IN 11 DAYS! The Mother of this soldier is freaking out, of course.
what the FUCK is wrong with this country for gods sake?????

1. what degree

was the burn?

[playahata1]

2. If he was burned over more than half his body

it has to be at least SECOND DEGREE. No way he's going back to Iraq.

Er, are you sure you are in the right site, Bonzo? (HINT, HINT)

3. degree is not related to surface area

I'm not trying to make light of his burn, just curious. I'm an EMT.

I know that 1st or 2nd over that much area is extremely painful and has to be properly taked care of.

6. Anybody who questions a poster on DU

. . . must be a freeper spy. All postings at DU are totally legitimate; even questioning some one elses posts at DU should be cause for immediate banning.

It was a legitimate question; this story doesn't sound entirely believable, and since there is no information provided that lets us verify it independently, well why not ask further questions.

4. Beside myself....

First thought that went through my head, is thats impossible, they wouldn't do that. There must be a mistake.
Keep us posted.

What is wrong with this country indeed, feels like that bad dream where you are trying to get people to listen to you but they don't hear you, or don't want too.

7. Let's pray it's a clerical error

Or they aren't aware of the full extent of his injuries. How long has he been in the hosptial?

8. Nancy told me even the doctors say he shouldnt be assigned

back to anywhere....and yet they want to send him back in 11 days..so Nancy is trying to get this woman some legal help..
I have a feeling there are a lot of deep and horrible stories like this out there and we arent hearing them. Looks like in this case its the military arguiing with the doctors.
Im one of those stories, but there are sure some worse ones then mine
