The worms are being shipped!

I just got news today that the hookworms are being shipped! This means they should arrive either Thursday or Friday this week (today is Monday), unless they are held up in customs. Thursday I have clinical placement all day in the hospital so even if they come in I won't be able to inocculate myself until Friday. This is because I need to phone the clinic in Mexico so they can give me step by step instructions over the phone. It seems very straight forward but apparently live specimens have been lost before so its better to be safe then sorry! I'm looking so forward to this it seems ridiculous--considering its going to be a fairly long road to remission. Oh well, gotta start somewhere.
