Update on my refugee family

[DesertMoon]

My uncle his wife and two adult sons have been sponsored by me and I had submitted my papers December 2015. They have their interviews December 8th. If all goes well they'll be here within 3 months. (From Turkey) I can't believe it's real they'll actually be here. I'm nervous and there is so much to do. They have never been to the west and I'm going to have to gauge how much of a culture shock this will be for them. They lost everything in Mosul Iraq with the ISIS takeover. They will need English classes ASAP

Wow 3 months, hopefully everything goes smoothly.

That is if they pass their interviews (not caught in lies or have different stories) and if they pass medical exams. I have never met them before and it's kind of awkward that I'm suddenly going to be solely responsible for them. My dad is like over the moon RN about this.

Wow that's so exciting and nerve racking! I hope all goes well and they can finally feel safe.

You are so wonderful and brave to put yourself out there for family! Not everyone who could do it, would. I admire you greatly!

I pray that it all goes well and that you become super close when you finally get together and that it is filled with love and hugs all around.

I pray the remainder of the process goes smoothly. It is so great that you are doing this.

Thinking good thoughts for strength and a smooth transition.

Wow. That is so remarkable that you are willing to do that for your family. Just incredible. I hope all goes well and the transition is smooth.
