Medical Waiver

Hey Guys

Well after a stressful week I went to the beach for the weekend to get some sun and relax. It was good to see my family and as always good to sea the ocean. I hadn't been to the beach during tourist season in a while and it was still pretty busy despite all those who canceled due to the threat of oil. The oil right now is 30+ miles from Panama City right now. Anyway I got back Monday evening and was planning to see my recruiter on Tuesday since I was supposed to hear from him Friday and I didn't. So went in yesterday to find out that his phone had died and he was using another recruiters phone. He also let me know that MEPS was having difficulty opening my X-rays from the disc I gave them (the doc didn't give me a hard copy). So he told me that he should know something on Thursday.

So I wasn't expecting to hear anything till tomorrow, but I just got a call from PO Klien aka recruiter man. He asked me if I still wanted to join the Navy...yes, and he says that MEPs has not approved my medical waiver. It was his stupid idea of a trick. My medical waiver has passed!!! Finally and thank God for that. Their one condition was that when I go to MEPS I am only going for the physical so they can make sure that the doctor didn't lie or anything like that. So I've made it through one more hurdle. Now on to the next. As of right now I am scheduled to go to MEPS on Tuesday. I'm excited and I hope they will take me. Keeping the fingers crossed! I'll be sure to report back soon.

Hooyah!
