Lee's Fit Test Take 2

I am very proud of Lee. He has been doing SO good on his diet and his fitness. In the past 12 weeks, he's lost almost 20 pounds and over 4 inches off his waist.
Unfortunately, this wasn't quite enough for the USAF. :( He still failed his Fit Test. Now, on the upside of this, he only failed by 2.5 points. He needed a 75 to pass. On his first test, back in April, he only scored a 22. Yikes, right? And today, he scored a 72.5. So you know what? I'm still proud of him.
But now comes the worry. There is a real possibility that he could be discharged from the military for failing again. I mean, yes, it's not the most likely option, but it's still there and that terrifies me. Lee has 13 years in, only 7 more to go before retirement. And he's still working on his degree. I have no marketable skills, I'm basically an idiot.
Now we have to wait until Monday to see what happens. It could be something as small as an LOC, or in the middle with an LOR. Or the ultimate Worst Case Scenario. A discharge from the USAF.
Gonna be a long weekend of waiting.
