My daughter is a rising junior on a 4 year army ROTC scholarship. She has had some issues with pain in her tailbone while doing sit-ups for pt, but has always just pushed through it. It began bothering her enough to see a dr. The doctor told her that X-rays show her tailbone curves to almost a horizontal position- which is why it is so painful. He told us he was shocked she’s pushed through. He did say part of why it’s so painful is because she is very thin and has no meat on her bottom - she is working on trying to gain more weight- and going through some PT on the chance it will help. The army path has always been her plan- so understandably, she’s worried about this. Because we are a middle class family, I also need to plan if any.
My question is this: if this turns into something that causes her to be medically removed from ROTC- is she required to pay back the past 2 years of tuition? I know we don’t know anything for certain at the moment, but I want to have a plan in place. She’s busted her butt to get where she is, I just want to help her have a plan B ready to go.
Thanks for any advice!
