Pray: We have encountered problems with mom's passport. LONG story, but basically mom has several problems getting her passport application that is in Washington DC pushed through. It has nothing to do with process and everything to do with proper documentation. The VERY short story is that they need a proper birth certificate (not in existence), or an infant baptismal record (mom wasn't baptized when she was an infant so this is not possible), or a hospital record of her birth (she wasn't born in a hospital so this is impossible) on top of everything that they do have. Dad will be on the phone tomorrow with Washington DC (at $1 per minute!) trying to get some kind of plan of action. I will then talk to him, get the plan of action and follow up with our US Rep or US Senator for help. Otherwise, mom cannot get back in the country in a week.
If mom cannot get back in the country, she will have to stay in Mexico. If that happens, I will be changing the name of this blog from "Jane's Journey" to "The Journey of our lady of Guadalupe" since she may have to live there. Another option would be that mom and dad commit some kind of Mexican felony and get deported back to the states. They may have to do some jailtime, but at least we could all visit.
Then again, perhaps we could pray for a better option then the two above.
Getting a tissue sample of mom's cancer cells for Dr. McGee across the border to a lab he wants to send it to in America is also an issue for some reason. They took samples and are having different labs try some different things for potential treatment options. This one sample he wants to send to America cannot get pushed through. Please pray that this will happen.
Mom was sick last night with nausea. Please pray that this has passed or will pass shortly.

Well, this could explain the crazy dream I had about my Grandmother Doss, (Janes and my mothers mom).
I dreamed we were all at my Grandmothers birtday party, we were all lauging and having a good time....... and ther were a whole lot of of Mexicans at the party! Not too far from the truth since my uncle Olin has 4 beautiful half hispanic children. This happened about 1 month ago, I told my mother about it (Patricia, Janes sister), and the very next night I dreamed of my Grandmother Doss again. Whenever I dream of her, I wake up in the best mood and so happy! I was able to see her!
So, Jane, we'll see you in Mexico for Birthdays if need be.
We love you!
