as you call. Okay. Can I ask you a question?
Yeah.
Is it funded in Virginia?
Yeah. Is it a family portrait?
Yeah. Yeah.
Can I ask too what you were thinking
when you saw him at the airport the first time? I was so happy
because in fact I don't even know how to explain that
because the joy was overwhelming after three years of struggling with her
she was always missing her dad
she was always sick all the time
hospital, one hospital to another. Just because
she was so close to him more than me. So all the love
Yeah. But the day we came here was so happy.
Yeah. So I was just talking about that and I was talking about
the miracle miracle miracle miracle miracle miracle.
Yeah. I'm really happy.
How do you like it here so far?
Hmm.
Do you have any other questions?
No. I mean the audio wasn't that great for
her. Now maybe if we have her sit down
and you could ask the same question. Yeah. So she's closer to the
microphone. Okay. So I think you could fit there
on the corner somehow. Yeah. So you're a bit closer to the microphone.
Yes. After you you stepped off the plane. What were you thinking as you were walking
off the plane and you had in with you and your daughter? What were you thinking right before you?
You saw him again. I was just like
is this for real? Am I here?
I was in shock when I saw him. I was so happy
and then I was very happy
and I found the American parents that really made it helpful to us
yeah everything because they helped me with it and I don't even find
my way around here that is. So they helped me with Ann
take care of us. Yeah.
And then when we left Ann was, when we came around Ann was always sick.
Yeah. Because it was missing is that so much.
She loved him so much. So she was always sick
and I was worried. But it turned out
we are all here. Yeah. I knew. I didn't know
where I was sick for. You're missing your dad.
I know. I didn't know where I was sick
for.
Okay.
Yeah. So that's all I have to say.
I just stumbled for everything.
Yeah.
Even as we are here if we do not see is that I'm in trouble.
Mama where is Daddy? Mama as well as Daddy is going to
Mama does like that as well.
Don't worry that is coming. Maybe I don't know
maybe she's scared that you leave me. I don't know. Because
all the time she keeps asking me that even is not seeing me.
Yeah Daddy gone too. I said don't worry that he's coming too.
I don't know why she keeps asking that same question.
Mm-hmm.
You got to be with your dad here.
Mm-hmm.
You're not saying something? No. I'm just very happy that I'm here with you.
It is.
Are you excited about the summer? Wisconsin summer?
No. Yes.
Because then it's coming here.

Normally they come to spend so much together. Yeah.
And have you met him before Ryan? Yeah. What was that?
