Hi FMB! Sorry to hear about your wife's knee. From what you've posted here, I know that this was really important for her for personal reasons. First of all, I hope for her speedy and complete physical recovery. More importantly, I'll encourage you to support her in continuing to address what ever goal she wanted to achieve by enlisting in the reserves. Maybe there is another way to address the goal or maybe there isn't and she needs to come to peace with the situation through another way. What I do know is that 1) if this was as big a deal as you described, the issue won't go away by itself and 2) it might be a bigger issue than you two can deal with by yourselves.
Don't be afraid to go to the appropriate place to get help. It can make a world of difference, speaking from experience.
