All,

I have learned that Ira of Alan-and-Ira had to cancel their interview because of an medical emergency. Ira had been suffering severe headaches and nausea and was unable to go to Kiev.

She went to the hospital where they found an tumor on her brain that required emergency surgery. Please keep both Alan and Ira in your prayers.

Dave

Wow. Sorry to hear about that. Please pass on my best wishes. I'll keep them in my prayers.

On an semi-related note, have any of you considered the possibility of what you'd do if there was a medical emergency and your SO or in-laws had to get back home? I've long been broke and wouldn't be able to get my wife there but it's something to consider.

Ensure your beneficiary makes and brings with them to the States a copy of the DS-3025 (vaccination form)

If the government is going to force me to exercise my "right" to health care, then they better start requiring people to exercise their Right to Bear Arms. - "Where's my public option rifle?"

"for everything else there is Mastercard", I keep a high-limit card with nothing on it just for family emergencies that involve international travel. I feel like this is something that happens, and while it may take a long time to pay it off.. there is no escaping the "what if I had been there" feeling if I could not travel.

I'm with Broken on this, keep a credit card available for such emergencies.

We'll keep Ira in our prayers and hope that everything turns out well for her. Please keep up posted about her condition. (F)

Terrible thing. Any news yet?

I just finished talking with Ira. She has just returned home. The doctors were able to remove all of the tumor and they will be starting her on Chemo on Tuesday. Ira and Alan are putting the Visa on hold until she is done with all of this.

Hello dear friends,

Thank you for your support and prayers - GOD answered all of them! GOD is Awesome!

Yesterday I finished the first part of the Chemo course, and today was the last Radiation treatment. We hope and pray that everything will be good!

Please, keep Alan in your prayers because he is also going to have a surgery which will possibly be in January.

THANK to YOU all! God Bless you!

Love, Irina.
