Shining angel, I have a little boy now and he's 5 years old...so, time heals everything. My miscarriges were in 2000 and my son was born in 2003.

********************************************************************************

....when it hurts to look back and you're scared to look ahead LOOK beside you and I'll be there.....

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Shining Angel, I'm sooooo sorry to hear about your little baby! I've been there too (my son was stillborn nearly 5 months too soon), and I can assure you, as Trelawny said, it does get easier over time.

Maad - maybe I should stop updating the spreadsheet?!?!?! Still nothing online here :rolleyes:

How come I'm not on the spreadsheet!!!!!! :crying::crying::angry:

Same question here :)

guys, you need to be proactive....

poor Aly is busy baking..

she doesn't have time to lookup everyone..

send her PM, as she asks in her signature, and you will be there..

it's nice to be able to see our timeline in one place

Card production ordered!

which card???

ladies and gentleman, please pm Aly (Jeraly) with your timelines.

look at September people, there are like 50 of them, only 16 from August :(

o, well, I know, vacations

Well I've updated the spreadsheet with a few new people so thanks for the PMs!!! Maad - you seem to be better at getting people to PM me! I know when I took over the July K-1 spreadsheet I had a bunch of people that had been added who stopped being active on the boards or never PM'd me updates and it took FOREVER to update the thing as I had to go through and investigate every person on there - and there were a fair few :lol:

For this sheet I just told myself that I would only add people who asked to be on there - that way they might keep me informed!!! It is a prestigious thing being on the spreadsheet and with prestige comes responsibilities :rofl:

Still nothing online for me - my cases do not exist... and obviously nothing in the mail either so I have plenty of time to keep the spreadsheet updated ;)

Congrats guys...im sorry if i vent a little bit here. we're so stressed of bills (who's not?). no news from USCIS yet, and yesterday a very sad thing happened. My husband and I went to the Emergency Room because i was bleeding - we lost the baby. It's a sad sad day today for me.

Oh sweetheart I am so so sorry to hear that. (F) (F) (F)

Just try and look at the positive in that you are ok in yourself and that you have your husband to help you get through this together. My thoughts are with you ((((((((((shining_angel))))))))))

Shining i am so sorry for your loss, but do know that things will get better, and you will be blessed with a child or more one day. Thank God it was in such the early stages of pregnancy if it had to happen at all. My thoughts are with you.

I am wondering, no updates again... is the online e-mail notifications a curse or not in your eyes? Who has them on, who has them off?!

I filed in August, and the case is still pending at the Missouri / National Benefits Center. I filed through H1-B, (not K-1), and was wondering if it's normal that the case hasn't been transferred to a local office... Given I've recently dealt with an RFE, I know it may take longer, but just wanted to see if anyone else can give some insights. Thank you!!
