I write this with a heavy heart.

With an interview just a few weeks away. First- I am very happy I have met all of you. Its been a hard road and a long one and yet we all made it. Our motives are many! but the biggest one is love.

This journey has taught me love.

My husband has decided that he cant leave his kids. He doesnt feel we will be able to make it financially and is having some regrets now. Call it cold feet? I do not know. All I do know is that I dont think we will remain married because how can we living so very far apart? I wont make him choose between me and his kids. I cant convince him otherwise.

I love all of you! And wish you all the best. I dont honestly know what I am going to do now. I guess find a way to pick myself up. I can consider this an accomplishment. A sad one.

God bless you all.

Oh, Alicia!

I'm so sorry, hon. I don't know what to say other that we love you and are here for you. If you start now, what's the estimate of when the kids could arrive? Is is possible for you to go there for a few years? I'm sure you've already gone over all of this, but I can't imagine that this would be the end. You've fought so hard and so passionately!

God is with you, Alicia. And He's with Troy and the children. There's a way. I'm certain of it. You're in my prayers, chica. (L)

Good luck, folks! :thumbs:

My gosh!!! isnt it funny how my CC was waaaaaaay before alot of ppl... and my interview date is at the end of the month.. I was thinking it was because my consulate must be extremly busy.. but.. I got word of someone having a CC about a week ago and then they got the interview date for the 12th in Delhi :o The only thing that makes sense is it must be Divine intervention because my SIL is due to have her baby on our interview day :dance:

I write this with a heavy heart.

Alicia darling I am soo sorry :( my heart goes out to you... I am sending you a PM and keeping you in my prayers
