Progress after the break.

Call us slackers, call us lame, or whatever you want, but we needed a break. So we took one. Between moving, and all the crazy medical stuff going on, our Peace Corps application was put on the back burner. However, this last week we've been feeling more jazzed about the entire process and had some energy to get the ball rolling again.
Ken called his therapist to find out where that part of the application was, (as we hadn't gotten it back after two months) and come to find out, Ken had sent it to the wrong place. So his therapist never received it, and we have no idea where the paperwork went. So he had to call the DC office and request a replacement set be sent to us. So between getting it, getting it to the therapist, and getting it back, it will be a bit longer before we can send in anything.
TB update: I started the medication on December 1st (which means I can have my first drink post-INH on my birthday!) and things are going fine. I'm not having any weird side effects (beige colored stool anyone?). The biggest hurdle is remembering to take it, which really isn't that big of a deal. I saw the Infectious Disease specialist today to check up after starting the meds. He's very nice and excited for our travels in Africa. He filled out my special "I have TB paperwork" in the office which was really great, so I don't have to go back to pick it up. After my appointment with him, I had another liver panel drawn, which is never fun, but apparently necessary. I'd rather not have my liver tank out on me without my knowledge. I'll find out if things are still looking rosy tomorrow, in case any of you are panicked about it. I for one am not.
Dr Ruscheinsky finished all of the basic medical paperwork yesterday, so that is ready to go. The dental and eye exams are ready to go too. So our current to do list is we need to write our "how we deal with stress and not go crazy" statements, and get Ken's paperwork back from his therapist. Five thousand down, three to go.
Wish us luck.
