We love her so much and she wants to HONOR her husband, my son, who we all love so much. She will get on with her life, with us. All we have left of my son is our grandson and Hota. She is such an amazing girl. Something I don't think you would know by you comment. She will move on someday and we will be there to support her and help her through anything. She will forever be loved by us, Her family. The pain we are all going through is just the most horrable pain anyone can go through. I hope you will never have to feel the pain that we have all been going through. Sgt. Michael Fersche's mom Tom,

The Private Bills sponsored for Hota in both the Senate and the House, are currently "in committee" and the US House is waiting on a report for the Department of Homeland Security. If ANYONE has a suggestion on how to get that report released from DHS and delivered to the House Subcomittee, it would be wonderful. Thank you!

But that is not the situation. Sgt Ferschke and Hotaru were married through an unconventional method (over the phone half a continent away from each other). For the marriage to have been valid in the immigration realm, Sgt Ferschke would have had to have come back to Okinawa and spent the night with Hotaru. Tragically, that couldn't happen. No American politician could fix this by slinging around his/her power. The plan was to short circuit the law by making an exception for Hotaru and her son. It appears Congress had other things on its collective mind.

Why not now? Anyway, if anyone can form some kind of trust or whatever for Hota's return flight I would be willing to contribute a few bucks, and maybe a few hours trying to get the word out to others. As for Tom, the word that comes to mind is "troll".

I have never had an affair of ANY sort while I have been married. The comments you are referencing involved my activities BEFORE I even met my wife. I would suggest you get some training in English reading comprehension before crawling back under your rock. Quit twisting my words, twit.

Hypocrite. Unfortunately you're not the only one here.

I would be willing to bet that first and foremost in her mind is the well being of her son. Where else should she go (at least initially) when coming to the US? How is she supposed to support her and her son? On the pittance that she'll be getting from the military? Instead of sitting in front of your computer all day, you need to get out in the world a little more and learn how things actually work.

It seems to have not posted for some reason. No biggie. I doubt Tom would understand and for the rest of us, these are obvious. Tom, my wife's parents got smacked around real bad during the Japanese occupation. Despite that, she has it in her heart to feel for this poor family. If she can, you should too. And if you can't it would be nice if you could just shut up. I had a pretty long winded post about the bonds of brotherhood and honoring moral covenants. It seems to have not posted for some reason.
