She's ready and I know she'll do great. I can't help but be worried though about so much being at the CO's discretion. For all the help & support & reading success stories, I've also read too many horror stories that make me shudder.

May we continute to have the power to overcome fate. Such is our destiny. (F)

Thanks everyone for the good vibes! I guess I'm only worried about it because I've done everything up until now and I can't be there for this interview. All my relatives are sending us good thoughts too.. even the ones who haven't met her yet! The internet has nothing on the redneck network :) LOL
