Oh I can only imagine and I totally sympathize.
It's just with our current situation he won't be coming here right away anyways so even if he did get it quickly, which I highly doubt given our luck, he won't be able to come much before Nov/Dec so it's not like we'll really be looking for it each day.
But for you all who are able to be together soon my heart goes out to you and the patience factor is probably extremely hard!!!
