The wait sucks, but it'll pay off. <br /><br />I'm sending in my medical packet at the end of the week (hopefully), so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that nothing comes up as a red flag. <br /><br />Anyway, I hope that everything turns out okay and that the wait will go quickly. Oh, the joys of the application process!Danielle Vaughnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14079575051019082712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2908884177927339424.post-55517486147247833472010-05-17T12:27:18.710-04:002010-05-17T12:27:18.710-04:00Hi - I was invited/accepted to Botswana on March 2...Hi - I was invited/accepted to Botswana on March 2; on March 5 I broke my arm...medical deferral, still in the waiting process.

Maybe you'll need the extra money you can save at your job? Maybe you'll win the lottery while you're still in the states? Maybe you'll get more practice and training in your area that will make you an awesome volunteer?<br /><br />I also had an unexpected delay when they told me that I might possibly have to have heart surgery - thankfully I didn't but at least now I know for the future to be extra careful with it!<br /><br />Good luck and hope everything turns out OK!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
