Talking I can't believe I'm posting this, but I just found out that we're OUT!!! OUT!!! OUT!

I just now called my attorney like he asked me to last week, and he told me that we got OUT yesterday!!!!! He is expecting to have Luke's BC w/in a week from Coban and he believes we can make tentative plans to travel around April 9-10th... I am in complete shock! I was afraid to call him for fear that he would not be able to give me the news we have been waiting on for so long!!! I nearly fainted when he told me we were out! He then told me to call him back tomorrow afternoon at 2:45 pm and he thinks he'll have more good news for me! I can't imagine what it might be other than maybe we can pick him up sooner than the 9th!

Thank you for all your warm wishes and prayers! I can hardly write I'm so excited! I hope many more of you get good news today! Alesanto, I won't stop praying for you until you're out!

We are OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Judy

YAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

I had to jump up and down before I could even send this reply. I'm so happy for you and Luke and your family. I was thinking all day that you might hear...then fretting that you wouldn't...then pushing those negative thoughts aside. And now this great news.

Let's keep those great PGN outs coming! This has been a good week.
