mnicolem loves this text message from my advisor: "It's official--you passed your doctoral comps! CONGRATULATIONS!" 
mnicolem says father in law still in ICU ...Dr talking about encephalopathy ... keep hubby's family in your prayers
mnicolem says Oral defense this afternoon ... Final piece of comps for my PhD ... Then dissertation then done ... I can almost see the light
mnicolem has been MIA for quite some time 
COMPs are over, though, except for oral defense on March 25 ... then I'm ABD (assuming I pass LOL)
