Thank you! great to know and for clarifying Tod. I am currenty on the family extension right now but about to apply for the 90 days in country, and friends want to go to Laos in December for a week. I also plan to leave the country at least four times next year. So just making sure.
It’s a terrible messed up unfair situation. She passed away in a foreign land so I understand all the guilt. I lost a daughter and it was her birthday Saturday. The why never gets answered and nothing we can do can bring them back. Find ways to honor her and be kind to yourself. I meditate and imagine she is with me. I even speak to her even if she never responds and tell her how sorry I am. Are you sleeping at night? Sleeping pills if not. Be kind to yourself, honor her, and make sure you are getting enough sleep.
this thread gave me more hope. When I googled it the articles say it’s almost impossible and should go for the green card… but that process seems pointless if we have no plans to ever live there.
