not in the 'pines anymore

ok, so the previous post probably makes no sense without this little piece of info. so i have been medically evacuated from the philippines. i had a little accident on april 23, and herniated 2 disks in my lower back. so i was in the hospital in the philippines for about a month, laying in traction. i finally was cleared for flight home on march 15, which was exciting, because in my condition i needed to lie down for the flight, so they bought me a world business class ticket. for anyone who has never been in world business class, it's amazing. they greet you by name, take your food and wine order from a menu, serve you with linens and real dishes. i got slippers for my cold tootsies, and a toiletries kit, so i could brush my teeth and comb my hair. i mean, it's business class, you're not allowed to be stinky or unkempt. so i layed back in my 180 degree reclining seat, watched my own personal dvd system, ate delicous food and wine, and just felt fabulous for the next 17 hours of flying. so now i'm home and talking to doctors that speak english and can explain what is happening. i have 45 days to make a full recovery, and i can go back. if not, i get medically seperated from peace corp, and do 1 of 2 things. 1--stay here in the states, get a job, take some classes - or - 2-- appeal and reaply for reinstatement and go back to my little hutt in the philippines. not quite sure how it's going to play out yet. i don't have any closure on my situation in the philippines, i never got to say goodbye to my community, or coworkers. i didn't even get to go back to my house to pack up my things, it was done for me -- and i'm missing alot of stuff i thought should have been packed up...hmmm... so i guess we'll see.
