My medical evaluation has been cleared...meaning the next step for me is...
to wait. Some more.
BUT the next step for them is to compare me with applicants and, if they so choose, to send me an invitation to leave! If I get the invitation, I have to apply for a Peace Corps passport and probably do a million other things in preparation.
I've been deliberating whether or not to do the PC based on other opportunities. I'm still not sure about it and I don't seem to be getting any answers from the man upstairs, but I can't help but get excited about this.
By the way, only 15% of applicants are medically cleared in the first go-around, so I feel relieved. And thankful to all the 5-6 nurses who ran around crazy trying to get everything together for me. The physical was friggin INTENSE. I got either 2 or 3shots, had to get a pap, (yikes), blood drawn, things in the blood tested to make sure I wasn't diseased, etc. My favorite nurse said, "Poor girl, we've poked and prodded you from all angles!" She wasn't kidding.
But now I'm not being poked and prodded anymore. Now I'm waiting. Waiting on acceptance from one organization, waiting on answers from God, waiting on the go-ahead to join another organization.... oh, life. Maybe I am being poked and prodded.
