MEDICALLY CLEARED!!!

Well wow, Chris’ phone call last week made more of an impression than we thought. We woke up this morning to an email status update for the PC. I was sure there was absolutely no way they could have finished looking at our packets since Chris just called on Friday. It had to be an update just saying that our medical packet is under review but to my complete surprise, we saw that fantastic checkmark that says “Medical complete. A decision has been made regarding your medical information.” And it goes on to say you have to wait for a letter in the mail to find out the decision but we felt pretty confident that we had been cleared since there should not be any major red flags in our medical files. Then, to seal to deal, we both got an email from a Placement Assistant asking for an updated resume, information on our language self study progress and for Chris to give details on the “grassroots environmental” experience he’s gained. So, we know the placement office would not be contacting us unless we were medically cleared. WOOOO HOOOO, YAAAAAYY! It only took 12 weeks for them to clear us (and that “only” is pure sarcasm ☺) ! We were like giddy little kids this morning since we finally got the information we have been waiting for, and it was the perfect day to happen since we both had the day off to spend time with my family in Cleveland for Passover. Now that we are back home, we have the afternoon to get the updates together and send out this evening. This is it people!!!! We are finally rounding the corner. An invitation is so close, I can taste that big blue packet!
