Wednesday, July 22, 2015 (Devon's Interview)

Wednesday morning at 8:55am, Devon was scheduled for his hearing in hopes of getting his green card.  i worried for the days leading up to this, that i would get sick and would be unable to go.  But it all worked out, except we didn't get in for the interview until after 10:00am.  The time waiting we talked with our lawyer and tried not to be nervous.

When we went into the small room with the interviewer, clearly a man who takes his job seriously, we really had no idea what he would ask.  But it all was just silly questions coming from the government form, mostly all for Devon.  i barely said anything in the 20 minute interview.

When the interviewer said he believes our marriage is real and Devon would receive his green card, i almost began to cry.  Despite being in the USA illegally for about 6 years, he can now go back home to see his 90 year old grandmother who raised him.

We went home, me being unable to take him out to celebrate because i needed to be off my foot.  We had planned to go out on Friday, but i ended up in the hospital on Thursday.  i hope i will be out of the hospital and well enough to take him out and give him more than just a hug.

i hope i am well enough and we have some money where i can take him to Canada to show him how proud i am and how much i love him.
