My son, C1C, was just diagnosed as having ulcerative colitis. From what he was told by the doctor this automatically disqualifies from becoming a pilot. His dream. In addition, there is some question as to whether or not he will be commissioned. I believe he will be allowed to graduate but what happens then is a mystery that I'm sure will unfold slowly over the next several months. I submit this post in hopes of gaining some insight this process. Has anyone ever have a son or daughter graduate but not get commissioned because of a medical condition? If so, what's in line for cadet after graduation. Yesterday we were making plans for graduation, today trying to understand this. In shock really. Any insights will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
