My mum hasn't travelled anywhere yet because she sacrificed her entire life rearing me & my sister. We didn't grow up to
be rich like anyone else. She saved all the money she had for our education until we both finished Uni.
Honestly, I am going to be very disappointed if visa is not granted, as there's no other way I can get her here. I just want to see her more often, and bring her on our holidays. That's the least I can do for her.
I so far, no word yet from the Embassy.
Hi Aingeall - We both have something in common with our strong family values and appreciation of our parent(s). Sadly, I have now lost both of mine but there is absolutely nothing that I wouldn’t have done for either whilst they were still alive; I was always and still am very appreciative of everything they gave and taught me. Unfortunately, this sentiment is not echoed by everyone in the world for reasons known unto them but I am glad that I am not one of them.

Great Mums and Dads are special people and should be treated as such. You are clearly a giver which is a lovely characteristic to have and no doubt one learnt from your Mum. I am sure your Mum appreciates everything that you are trying to do for her too. Fingers crossed that the application will be successful soon!
