Wuhooooo. Congratulations.....

All these waiting, pains and sufferings are finally paying off. Thanks for sharing, as I am sure this will give hope to many similar to your position it even worse.

So he is flying on 18th and coming on 19th? Bed wishes for you and your fiancé. Enjoy these moments and down the road of you ever feel down, think about these helpless frustrating moments, how hard you tried, and what you felt after hearing the good news, and I am sure it will lift your spirit. Have a great life together.

:-) :-) :-) :-)
