It’s been a long week…, I have had three news article written about me and ShamSchool. I have had reporters from the Boston Globe and the Army times contact me requesting an interview. I have had to shut down my web page. My car has has rocks thrown at it. My unit has been in the field. And my daughter has been to the doctor three times, including the emergency room today.
We first took my daughter because she was having excessive diarrhea, then a high temp, and today because her entire body is covered in a rash. I don’t know what is wrong with the doctors on post but I feel they do everything they can to get us out of their hair. Today was the first time they actually touched my daughter and made a real attempt. The first two times the nurse took her weight and body temp, then the doctor reviewed it and listened to us explain what was wrong. The doctor today actually looked at her ears and throat, and listened to her stomach. The first time they made an attempt to check her pulse but because she was so scared they said it was ok, and didn’t bother.
I still don’t honestly know what is wrong with my daughter but they are saying that she is fine, has a virus, or its all because she is teething her back molars. If I had the money I would probably go off post and take her to a doctor that gives a shit. The ones on post fail to even fake it.
I have now gone and self-medicated and bought her some cream for the rash, and benadryl.
On the plus side I managed to get out and introduce my wife to another wife of someone I work with today. Not sure how well they get along just yet, but considering they are both in nearly identical situations, with the exception of the culture, I am hoping they should get along fine. My wife needs to make some friends around here to help her better understand military life and the American culture. I am hoping this is a step in that direction.

Since you’ve shutdown shamschool.com what are you doing with all the NON ACCP related information? Would you consider moving it to another server with which no ACCP material would be traded? Or would you consider re-opening shamschool.com without the ACCP materials?

Everything else will stay and I will continue running ShamSchool as before just without the ACCP content.
