[quote=Anonymous]I miss my family so so so much too. We video chat everyday, my mom spends chunks of months with us, we go every summer but of course it is not like being there. Over the years, I missed a few big things (my grandpa's death/funeral, my brother's engagement, the birth of a cousin) and tons of the small stuff like large family bbqs, birthday parties, niece's school plays etc. I tear up just thinking about it...All of this to say- I feel your pain OP. Immigration is really tough, and there is a grief process involved in it, which I had never imagined would be there. We grieve for all the things we left behind, the other future we could have had, and of course if you are from a family/guilt heavy region you pile on that a lot of guilt associated with having left your family. Big virtual hugs to you OP, immigration is so so so tough,[/quote]
