Great News! Farmega was able to get her Student Visa on her second attempt at the Embassy. We had assistance from Senator Jeff Sessions office and letters of recommendation and a promise of a job for Farmega in Haiti after graduation. She is now enrolled at Calhoun Community College and is doing her prerequisite course work before being accepted into the nursing program. Farmega seems to be adjusting to life in the USA and our household well. I am learning that "life is hard in Haiti". Farmega seems to be adapting to the modern conveniences we have here that she was not familiar with in Haiti, such as dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, electric stove/oven, microwave, vacuum cleaners, etc. Although she never had the opportunity to swim in a swimming pool before, she likes getting in and cooling off in ours during these 100+ degree days we are having. She is currently studying the driver's manual in hopes of maybe one day obtaining a drivers' license, but for now is content to be driven where ever she needs to go. We continue to support Loudna's family and I receive e-mails from the aunt (Lovely) periodically thanking me for the continued support of her family. Ironically, I discovered that Farmega and Lovely are related. Both of their last names are Innocent. I'm not sure of the exact connection, but think they are cousins.
