Try your Congressional Rep. too. This sort of thing is supposed to be their job. They have a smaller constituency and in theory more time for smaller issues.

If that comes back negative, then I'd call Sen. Reid's office again, and report that you've tried the Gov, tried the Rep, what else can they suggest to get an American citizen out of no-man's land?

I still think the Sen.'s office could solve this if they got on board.

great to know it is getting better! We will be in Vegas in Feb 2....but don't have transportation except the bus unless we fold down the camper! Might be interesting. We figure we can take a bus to Sam's Town, go to the strip and just get on and off all day! Or we will leave early!!! We stay at Thousand Trails in Henderson! :D

Wow, Kirk/Ege, your weightloss (and resolve) is amazing! Sorry to hear about your difficulties... I'm going to read your journal from the beginning and hope your success will inspire me too. Might take me awhile - it's 50+ pages!

Hello Kirk (and Janette),

While reading a Lounge post today I noticed a reference to your Journal and headed over there. What an inspiring story you have. I've only read the first 3 pages but already I want to say Hello and that I'm a new fan! You have courage and stick-to-it-ive-ness, a wonderful attitude and an enjoyable writing style as well!

You make me want to log on to the Discussion Board more often. I forget about the terrific people and support I find here. I look forward to following your progress.

Glad you guys enjoy your kitties. I have two 14yr old Siamese cats that keep us company.
