Sam,
Don't you just hate it when someone gives you a simplistic answer to a complicated situation? Whether they realize it or not, they are implying that your sickness is your fault because you are not doing the right things, like drinking orange juice. Wouldn't be wonderful if it were really that easy?

I'm so sorry you are sick at exam time when you have so much important work which must get done and on which your grades depend. Is it possible to ask some of your professors for an extension on some assignments? That would help to get the pressure off of you. If they won't give you an extension, then all there is is to do the best you can and look forward to being an official teacher.

I hope you are feeling better soon. I'm sending hugs your way.

Karen

I cannot make the universe obey me. I cannot make other people conform to my own whims and fancies. I cannot make even my own body obey me.

Thomas Merton



Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all.
