100 Posts and Counting!

Update… I know you guys are dying to know what is happening with us. Well two bits of news, one I can breathe again… I know it is wonderful, since the antihistamines work (well I think they work, they make me sleep so I can’t actually confirm that) I am going to assume that I developed a recent allergy that made breathing… difficult to say the least. Anyway on an exciting note I had a chest x ray done and I don’t have noticeable signs of TB (I have never left the US or been on trans Atlantic flights so that isn’t really shocking), I took infectious disease this semester and I am little bit paranoid about contracting XDR TB, but no signs, so I can breathe (literally) a little easier. My second bit of news, I got a job for next semester! Very exciting, I was a little (or a lot) worried since my research hours were ending but it turns out that I am going to be a TA instead. I am so excited, and the professor I am working with is one of the reasons that I decided to major in public health in the first place, so this is going to be a fantastic learning opportunity! Let’s see Brian updates… he is almost done with classes this semester… and oh yeah all of his finals are take home open note (What!?!), so I would say he is doing well.

*this is my 100th post! Can you even believe you have read 100 posts? yeah I can't (not that I am not grateful but really)

I am glad to hear you are feeling better. Breathing problems are so foreign to me, becuase no one in our family ever had an. But Matt has asthma and I have learned alot about how serious breathing problems can be and how horribly uncomfortable it is for that person. So I am really glad all is well!! (and that you don't have TB)
