Medical Clearance Please Come for Us!
Today was the last of our medical appointments required for medical clearance. After we left the clinic we got ourselves some chai and double checked the documents at least 50 times. Once we were sure everything was in order, I dashed to the Post, put our papers in a snazzy durable cotton-mix envelope and sent them off to DC for inspection.
How time is flying! In April-May we applied, we were interviewed in June, we were nominated in August, received our medical packet mid-September and now in October we begin the wait for the much anticipated MEDICAL CLEARANCE (read with big booming voice)!!!
Now, we guess that sometime around the end of December or early January we should be medically cleared--provided our paperwork is complete and our files are attended to in a timely fashion. We'll be in Thailand from late December till March and we just HAVE to be invited by then. We just gotta. Apparently we have 10 days to either accept or decline an invitation...after all of those months spent waiting and the money spent there's no way we're declining. That'd be crazy.
Waiting is so fun! Weeee!

hey adrianna! thanks so much for the comment you left on my blog ... funny how you came across that and i just posted it today! thanks also for the info on the corps ... i didn't know i couldn't indicate my country of preference. i'm looking towards the middle east, which would be either morocco or jordan (and i'm leaning more towards morocco), but hey, wherever they need me is where i'll go. i'd love to keep in touch with you over the next couple of years and see how things go for you, and perhaps get some more insight from you guys along the way. buena suerte en todo!
you're welcome!
