The doctors visit Part II

Well, that's done. I went back to the doctor today to get my testresults and ultimately my filled out and approved form I-693. Almost everything went according to plan - my test for Mumps antibodies was positive, which is good, and my test for HIV was negative, which is even better. The only minor irritation was the one on my skin, where the doctor applied the skintest for tuberculosis earlier this week. Well, I was vaccinated as a kid, so that was to be expected. He still send me to get my chest X-rayed (75 $). Everything turned out to his satisfaction and now I have a sealed and stamped envelope with the form and his OK on my health status. This I will send to the INS early nexy week and then we have to settle down to wait again.

It's like you're in gestation to become a baby american.. you're developing, slowly, under the watchful gaze of Uncle Sam.. That's just disturbing...

SOon you'll be a real girl, bonafide by the US Government.

You'll have 2 birthdays; the one in October that your mom was present for and the other one, when we Americans can say that you became valid.
