Thanks for the resource. I will do my very best to pay it forward when I am in a better place. This is my first post and sincerely need some help. I am an AGR whom is trying to enter the MEB process. I had dropped my retirement letter; then as I rolled into sanctuary I went through huge medical challenges due to being rear ended by a kid on a cell phone breaking 2 titanium screws already in my neck. Within a 12 month period I had to have significant shoulder surgery due to wreck as well as 5 neck surgeries. I was in a medically induced coma after developing hematoma that nearly caused loss of life six days after ACDF / 10 screws and a bracket C-3 thru C-7. I also had another temporary paralyzation event on 4th neck job followed by another life saving surgery. There is much more to this. Recent surgery on knee removed 60% of cartilage. This 20 year old knee injury from Robyn Sage that finally blew up this year; I bled out for 5 days internally and externally. Vonwillibrans genetic bleeding disorder then diagnosed. Much more to mention but also diagnosed bilateral lower extremities vascular insufficiency narrowing of Veins, whole leg swelling. There is much more. I am trying to get MEB process going and wish to medically retire with over 20 AFS. As the benefit difference. April 2020 is my 20 AFS Mark. It has become a severe challenge. There is much more I am not bringing up medically. NGR Regulation states AGR can only enter MEB if there is an acute or grave medical condition or change. My employability and insurability is shot as well as reduced effectiveness. My current permanent profile is 333113 and states that Soldier is currently in the MEB process. Getting Jammed up .. Control grade. My retirement date is 31 MAY now. This is crushing me/family. Thanks in advance for any feedback. I have to build a brief for VERY senior leaders ASAP on MEB vs. regular retirement.
Aside from brief, as I have been called a $:;? House lawyer yesterday. My “opinion is that near death and paralysis events meet the ACUTE mark. The CIB and BSM are not going to pay the bills If I pass in 2 years I am simply Trying to do the right thing for wife and girls. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Very Respectfully,
AGR Kopasus 18 ...CMF
