We're almost ready to submit all of our materials per the CO's white paper; we've been very methodical and even got help.

I feel pretty hopeful. My thinking is that our case is rock solid --what more would they want?

My wife, however, quietly whispered that she doesn't dare be hopeful. She says that she will probably pass out if she gets hopeful and they reject us, again. Our backup plan, of course, is for me to move to Asia.

I tell 'ya, this whole thing is a huge emotional toll.

She has the same feeling with me.don't dare to hope so much.just pray God will smile with me this time.The more i hope,the more dissponted i will get after interview.Nov 14th will be my second interview after 6 years loving my husband. Us consulate always says no to me even they didn't let me come to usa with my parents.I am so despreate.My husband wants to move to vietnam too but he working for aricraft maybe it's diffcult to have that job in Vn.After this interview, ifn't good i may move to Australia for study.

Hope and Faith will keep your love alive and vibrant!

Ask anyone here who went through the journey, by the time she's here with you... all that struggle and trouble seem like NOTHING! and it's all worth it!

No regret! Keep moving forward! :thumbs:
