Things are still go, go, go. My dad has come home from the hospital and thankfully responded to the chemo treatments very well. "A textbook patient," his doctor said.
This is a great relief to our family. I hope that as we complete the second round that it will indeed by the last one and he will be cured.
It also looks like I will still be in the area until January. My paperwork for the Army did not get to the Chief of Chaplains Office until it was too late. The next board is set for 20 Sept. and that will be after the September Chaplain Officer's Basic Course (CHOBC) has started. At least I will be around to help Dad through the second round.
I also will need the time to complete my ordination exams for the PCA. Half of my exams were sustained (meaning I passed) but I need to do half of them over. My next meeting with the committee is set for mid-September. I hope that I will pass the remaining portions of the exam so that I will at least have the news that I will be ordained before Dad goes back into the hospital.
I will be so glad when this is all over.
