GRADUATION

[CasandraYounes 0]

I will be graduating tomorrow and the one person I wanted to be here for me, can't. I hate that we should be separated from our loved ones at the times that we need them the most. I talked with my husband yesterday and he was so sad to miss my right of passage. For those of you whose spouses have missed out on memorable moments because of this long process, I feel for you and hope that we can all get through this. Fill me in on what your spouses have missed, if you want? And how you dealt with it. Anything creative?

My husband missed the birth of our son. Of course the baby will not remember his father wasn't here but it was so hard going in for surgery and my husband sick with worry over 6000 miles away. You get throught it, just a hard pill to swallow.

Congratulations on your graduation!

Congrats! I would have been graduating in May but I postponed it for a year. Part of that is because I want Waleed to have this experience with me even if it is the last year of college. The other part is I really do want him here at my graduation. There is more to it than that I just wanted to give ####### for tat on some of the things you touched on.

Hi Cass!

Sorry I couldn't respond earlier but NY had a major ice storm & we havent had power since last night around midnight (just came back up a few hours ago ). Been a looooooong & coooooooooold day

Gurl so sorry to hear about ur pain - we all feel it when it comes to being seperated & not sharing moments with our SO. Though many special moments have passed dont let that get you down, focus on ALL the special & exciting ones you will share with Aziz very soon! Send him pics of the graduation & party to keep him connected to your day, he'll love it & you'll feel a little better too

BIG CONGRATS on your Graduation from college - major lifetime accomplishment & no worries gurl - he'll be here for the next one when you receive that Masters Degree! (Heck, Hassen & I might be there too!)

Catch up later & be sure to celebrate your special day!

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the fast replies. I appreciate all of your kind words. I really needed the support and will have all of you in mind as I cross that stage tomorrow.
