		<description>The overuse of antibiotics leads to the drug resistance of these bugs, but the reason your father has it in the first place is because of a lack of cleanliness in the hospital.
If the operating rooms, ICU&#039;s, etc. were not contaminated the patients could not become infected.
While weakened bodies are easier for Ab to run rampant in, perfectly healthy people have been taken down by it.
Be careful</description>

May God help your father and give you all strength
Take care

		<description>I didn&#039;t have major issues with my back.  I know when it comes ot back issues the military may not grant a waiver. You have to be deployable.  I was able to get a waiver but it wasn&#039;t for back issues.  You will need to talk to an Army recruiter and probably see a series of doctors (even MEPS) to determine whether or not you can obtain a waiver. It took six months for me to get into the Guard and from what I understand, at least for the state I live in, we are overstrengthed.

Good luck!</description>

		<description>Did you have a spinal fusion and get into the military? If so what all did you need to do and have so you could? I am prior service wanting to get back in after 11 years and I had a one level spinal fusion in 2001 and I am worried it will keep me from reenlisting. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Bobby</description>
