The registrar called on Wednesday evening. He was very nice and explained the situation that Carli is in. GCC has to report all students to a national clearninghouse. I believe that this is a result of 9/11 and it is something that they have to do. He said that her withdrawel is mainly just a reporting/paperwork kind of thing. She can't have her roommate, because they have 45 students right now on stand-by for a room this fall!! But, by January there should be no problem as they have students that will graduate in December.

He said that she will come back with senior status and be able to register with her class. Thank goodness, because she can't take the chance of being closed out of any classes, etc. The only battles left to fight (I think) are for her computer and her email. He is checking into those issues for us.

He was very nice and explained everything well. He also said that he was hearing how many people are so disappointed that she isn't returning this fall. It is also nice to speak to the powers that be and know that they are also praying for your daughter!!

So, right now we only have the computer and email issues. And, in the scheme of things, they are small issues compared to everything else. I felt a lot better after getting off of the phone with Dr. Inman and realizing why they have to do what they do.

Carli called yesterday and is having a great time with the little inner city kids. She said that it was HOT and humid at camp, too, and rainy. But, they were still having fun. Some of these kids have never been swimming or out in a woods. She said that they are so funny to watch! I'm sure that she will have stories to tell!!! She will be home on Monday as the camp staff are going to the dunes on Sunday. Hopefully her counts will be good enough to have chemo on Tuesday.....
