leejcandle Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 But she had a frightening time...6 people ahead of her were rejected. So she had to sit through that, in mounting fear She was very relieved to be successful. She just a few minutes ago waved the paper to show me on the web cam; big grin quite evident. Link to comment

leejcandle Posted February 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Thanks guys and gals. This ordeal has brought us closer as a couple as the weeks pass. After her initial blue slip last week, I and her family spent days trying to get her spirits back in the fight. I advised her that inspite of what happened, the best response is to rush back in the consulate (with the corrected paperwork) is quickly as possible. I even suggested she watch a Kung Fu movie to help get her fighting spirit back. I also assured her that if she had another setback, I'd be in China the next week. I think the fact that we would be together soon, no matter what, helped her be more fearless. Then yesterday, it was I; pacing and having knots in my stomach as if I were waiting for a baby to be born. When afterwards she told me she had to sit and watch as 6 people in front of her were rejected, I gained even more respect for her ability to stand in the face of adversity; especially after she was so dispirited last week. She's walking 6 inches over the ground now. (At least I get that impression on the web cam.) Thanks again folks. Link to comment
