ATTENTION JULY FILERS! (2)

[Jeraly 4]

Yep, here's some good news from Frankfurt! My visa was approved yesterday! The Consul just took my fingerprints and that was it! I'll stay in Germany until mid June to sort out some things and will be traveling to Washington on 06/18.

The most exciting part about the whole "interview" was when I was handed a booklet called

"Welcome to the United States- A Guide for New Immigrants"

Can't wait to finally become Mrs Nieto !

Congrats to you and Marc!!

We could start a K1 July Filers AOS thread... or is that too confusing

We have our beanbag room in the "Moving here and your new life in America" forum - I figured this would be the best place to put it because we can talk about anything including AOS - how we are adjusting, weddings, moving, babies(!!!!)

I want a bean bag...where do i get one?

images.google.com Just search for bean bag, beanbag, sofa, [insert comfy seating of your choice here]

I have some disconcerting news....Peter woke in the morning with the entire left side of his face swollen huge (he's calling himself the elephant man). It appears he's probably got a tooth abcess and that's triggered his Trigeminal Neuralgia. He's going to the dental hospital tomorrow..but they'll likely give him antibiotics and scoot him on his way until the infection is gone. He needs several teeth pulled. We all know how his immunizations went..he was a big fraidy cat. He's put this off too until the last minute....he's got plane tickets to come in here in five weeks! I'm nervous that this won't be resolved and we'll be bombed with whopping dental bills right off the bat! Right now, I'm just feeling helpless that he's in so much pain....I told him to go the regular hospital maybe they can start him on antibiotics and at least get his pain under control....I don't know how things work like that in the UK. I'm worried it's gonna delay him coming here too. I just want him well though.

I'm sure he'll be fine - does he have a dentist? I am sure if he let them know of the situation it will all be ok. As for huge bills - sometimes you can go to a dental college and get things much cheaper - I know that is what my dad does

Hey, I've done this before. And it wasn't a bad experience either. And I saved an extra 50 bucks by passing up on the anesthesia. I don't recommend this, but I got over it.

Haha - you're braver than I am - I freak out about the dentist!!

[Jason-Sasha 1]

Dental pain never really bothered me much. Even growing up. My mother would tear up and yelp as the dentist did their job. and she wasn't even the patient! I was in the emergency room nearly every month when I was growing up. I was a bit of a rambunctious kid and "stitches" was even my nickname for a while. I've always had a strangely high threshold for pain. Don't really know why. And it worried my parents a lot. Its really not a good thing. In the past xrays have shown that I was hurt much worse than I thought. Not fun!

Haha - I used to be fine when I was a kid - I never minded the dentist, doctor - anything! Then I had a bad root canal infection That combined with going to uni and suffering from depression was a bad combo - I still get quite anxious (a side-effect from my former depression) although I am a lot better than I was, and I tend to blow things out of proportion and over-analyse. I was very brave about going to the dentist though - I hadn't been in six years and then my tooth broke so I kinda had to - my dentist is lovely!!! I just hope I find a nice one in the US...

Unfortunately some July filers are still waiting. I'm curious to know how many.

Credit cards are a godsend... I don't like to use them but they got me out of a hole when I was coming back from the US - got stung 120 euros for excess baggage

I am really excited now - I am seeing all my friends graduating and I want it to be my turn! I am really nervous about the interview and medical etc but I can't wait until I can put that part of it all behind me and concentrate on getting ready to move at the end of June!!
