A really heartfelt congratulations, Tango. I hope that you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving as well. Sometimes I think that a lot of people tend to forget how much they actually have to be thankful for. Thanks for reminding me.
Again, congratulations,
Shaun

Cogratulations, Chris. Immigration's a scary place.
I had to walk one of my clients through much of this process in 2003. He was brought here as a 6 year old for medical treatment (MR and epilepsy) and mom never finished the process. 22 years later, I was worrying the day with him, his guardian and care providers. He has some serious behavioral issues and got through the day very well.
Until it was time for his photo and he decided he just HAD to wear his reading glasses. At one point, two security guards (uniformed authority means nothing to this guy except a challenge when he's having a behavioral episode!) were called into the photo room and I thought for sure he was going away for good. Somehow, I managed to con his glasses off and get him to look where he needed to have his picture taken.

Immigration seems to be a scary thing to have to go through. I have never had to go through it, but I can just imagine what you've been through. What country are you coming from?
