My wife got into a really bad accident 2 weeks ago. Her scooter fell onto her leg and she needed immediate surgery or else she would've lost her leg. The surgery went well and she is currently in the hospital recovering. Our interview is on May 11th and we are determined to make it to the interview. I was just wondering if the embassy would let her into her interview with metal prodding out of her legs? I was thinking about re-scheduling the interview but I don't know how long it would take for us to get another interview date. We have waited this long. Waiting another 3-4 months would be fine but being apart from your wife and kids is sometimes unbearable. Well I'm flying back there on May 9th. Hopefully she will be better by then.

The 'Embassy' is in HaNoi.. the consulate is in HCMC... They are required by US law to be ADA compliant since it is a US government office... If she is physically up for it, then why not do it now... They have to make accomodations for her...

They will let her in- she may get a pat-down search but they can't not let her in. If possible, maybe bring a letter from doctor explaining what happened, and what metal is in her?
