Update

OK. Here is where we are at...

Tomorrow around 5:45 we are leaving to go to get Lou's test results. If it is negative, we'll head to the US Embassy and drop off the paperwork. If it is positive, he'll need a chest xray and I don't know where we go from there...

If we get to the US Embassy tomorrow, we'll be trying to schedule an appointment and discussing why we should have an IR3 visa instead of an IR4 visa. From what I can tell, it will be the Haitian-side that determines whether or not we get an IR3 visa (this is good news).

This afternoon I got an email from the US Embassy in Haiti and that email said that they received an approved I600 (yeah! they finally got it!!) and they want the orphanage director to come in with the paperwork. We have all the paperwork and the orphanage director is now in Germany, so we'll deliver it ourselves...assuming the TB test is negative.

So that's the plan. We'll update you when we get back tomorrow. Your prayers will be greatly, GREATLY appreciated!

Saying a prayer that all goes well tomorrow.

When Sawyer was so sick, people would say, "How can you do it" (or some variation of that). My answer, "How can you NOT". You just put one foot in front of the other and keep going. You can't just stop. What else is there to do but to continue to plug away. Some days are obviously better than others but you just keep going. You can't look in those eyes and give up. So I know how you feel. This is a blip on the screen. (big yes, but still a blip) There will be others, some happy and some not happy. Some bigger and some smaller. Here's to starting a new and much less stressful blip!
