Second Day of Medicals at IOM

The only thing I can say about this portion is...bring your patience. Lots of folks waiting in lines at the medical portion. But you also have to SPEAK up, don't just sit there and wait for them to call your name. Because you are probably standing in the wrong line because no one told you where to go. So ask. Ask reception exactly where you are supposed to go and exactly what you are supposed to do.
Then when you get there, make sure they know you are there and make sure you are in the right place.
At one point there were about 70 people congregated outside the Vaccination Room. So when I walked up, I sort of got everyone's attention and directed everyone how to form lines...I mean, how else do we know what's going on and who is next?? Sometimes I hate my loud, boisterous personality but then I realize this adoption wouldn't have happened without it...
