I'm now at about 85% of my goal and I leave in about a month! For those that haven't hear yet: I will be leaving a little late, catching up with the group at the end of september, or early october. I've had a persistant cough for almost 2 years now, and I've been going to the doctor for about a year getting tests run and what-not. This summer, I finally switched doctors and have been making much more progress. The great news: all the serious illnesses ruled out. On the other hand, I still have to figure out what it is, and make it stop. So, this month they took a camera in my lungs, looked around, took some samples of whatever is in there (gross i know...) and took a shaving of my lung. I'll have the results by the end of next month and then I'll be able to meet up with everyone. I'm sad that things are being delayed, but forever grateful that it's not canceled!! With that being said, I'm still going to training camp in GA and am still working on raising the rest of my funds. oh, and my passport finally came in, YAY!
