I won't count my chicken until they're hatched. I was overly confident and that medical rejection was a serious blow. With the help of my doctor and my specialist, the decision was overturned. I'll be forever grateful to them, their staff, and the people at the medical office in Ottawa.

As I said I won't take anything for granted, and I will train hard so I'll pass the PT test.

Finally all done and over with, kind of.  Looking forward to my new life, and nervous as hell about it too.  I will be one of the first ones to complain about the quickness of it all.  After I received the job offer it flew by way too quickly.  Had to quit my job the next day.  I wanted to give my employer some notice.  2 days to go, and I am nowhere near being ready.  I am glad that I have someone that can pack up my belongings for me while I am in St. Jean.  Now the fun begins.  My body will hate me by this time next week.  Hard to exercise when I am at home with 15 feet of snow, and 6 inches of ice on the streets.  Thank you all for your help with my annoying questions, and I hope to make Canada proud.

Well since it is not his decision but the CFRC/D's then the answer would be no.

 

[omgLiam]

Sorry, he hadn't stated that in the post. I thought it might be possible to go ahead and do the three tests and then go ahead with the application after a year of university.
