sam left this morning :( he's almost back in US by now, guess in few hours he'll be home. it was horribleeeeee, i think i cried like a baby for hours before he left. now all we can is hope for noa2 and we get our 100 days this week. i hope to god we get approved next week cause this hurts more than anything. processing times show early march but it looks more like they are processing late march to me.

NOA2 will heal all the scars, Dee! I can't wait to hear good news from you guys, it's coming soon! I'm here praying and wishing good luck to you, hang in there sweetie! It's very hard to say bye, for its not forever... its just for a short time! (F)
