Hi my sweety is at St. Lukes!

We would appreciate your prayers today as Lorna goes through the physical process.

We are concerned about her small cough that has been lingering. Doctor says its allergies and we are sure its not TB, but you never know what might happen at Physical (Right Rob?)

I can't wait for this part to be over :-)

Thanks and congrats to everone that got approved.

Also love those pics at the get together! You are all soooo beautiful!!

Mike

Mike, You can count on our prayers. Prayer is the most important ingredient in this stressful process for sure.

Mira is APPROVED. YEAH. We were not prepared for the number of people waiting to get into the Embassy. I thought we would be there all day. I was impressed by the way they moved applicants from one section to another and I was surpised that we were finished at 11:10am. Hope Mike n Jennie and 2hearts have the same news. Post more on the interview later when we climb down off cloud9. hehehe. :dancing::dancing::dance::dance::thumbs:

Congratulatons!wooot! :dance:

congrats guys!

Congrats Oakwell! :yes:

I am right there on cloud 9 with you. Maricel just told me the two prettiest words: "We're Approved." Yahooo!

Blessings and more power to all those in the final stages of this long process. I particularly want to throw a special good luck wish to PW on the upcoming interview. Yours is a wonderful story of enduring and ever-lasting love. (L)(F):star: I sincerely wish you all the best.

my greatest congratulations!!!

Hey Mike and VJers,

My gwapa asawa Milah Jean was also at St. Luke's today. Just spoke with her a few minutes ago at her hotel. (She likes the Palm Plaza in case anyone is needing a recommendation.) She arrived at 5 am and was #9 in line. She was finished for the day by 10 am!!! She said the process was very fast even though it was very busy there. The VJ guides I sent to her were of tremendous help. Many there were jealous of her well organized notebook. She was well equipped. She was nervous at first, but she gained confidence very quickly. The physical exam was toughest, since she said the doctor asked many questions, but she survived. Tomorrow she goes at 10 am for the results and the last couple of vaccinations. I'm very proud of her.

Thanks so very much to the VJ family!!! We're almost there. Interview next, and hoping for no problems or delays. Wow...I can't believe she'll be here soon. If all goes well from this point forward, she arrives in America on her birthday, April 5. We'll have a very special celebration.

Mike

Thanks everyone for your prayers....

Well so far so good.... Lorna got to St. Lukes at 7am and was out by noon. Her cough was better today and wasn't an issue. Thankyou God!

I was in touch with her througout the whole process texting back and forth.... really cool!

Now she goes back tomorrow at 9am for the final part.

So if you have a few prayers left, we could use a few more, hehehe!

Michael & Milahjean,

Congrats! To bad Lorna didn't get to meet Milahjean. I guess there were maybe 100+ people there.

Good luck tomorrow!

Mike

I'm going for the first day of the medical tomorrow at St Luke's. Quite scared, really, though I'm not sick or anything. My main worry is that as a kid, I got those Hepa-B vaccinations done at our school, but only 2 of the 3! Because of the lack of the third (we had a major economic slump then), the Heba-B test i got for my high school admissions showed a false positive (re-test proved it to be false.. hindi lang sya hula, hehe). What if something like this happens at the medical? *panic* I've lost vaccination records cuz that was like eons ago, and we also moved to a different house (maraming nawala during lipat-bahay)..

My sweetie tells me not to worry, and I try not to, but I'm a natural w-wart... :unsure:

PS

Congrats to all the approvals! You give us all hope -teary eyes-
