15 1/2 years ago I met my soul mate on-line, he lived in London and I lived in Riverside, California.  We were the best of friends hit it off instantly. the way we met was funny I was bored of speaking to all the perverts in the online world and a friend told me to go through a profile search for peoples birthdays so I did on April 12, 1999 I sent out loads of birthday greetings and my husband was the only person to respond but funny thing was he was really rude about it.  Well, little did I know that the UK did there dates differently than we did in the USA so in the USA 04/12 is acutally the 4th of December in the UK.  After sorting things out we became great friends chatting daily.  Towards the end of June he came to visit me in the states, he stayed at a  Hotel (The Mission Inn) and I stayed at home for 3 weeks I showed him the sites of Southern California.  When it came to tell him goodbye at the airport it was like a part of me was being ripped away we came to a dicision that I would come a visit him the next April.  When he finally arived back in the UK we started to speak on the phone on daily then he received a phone call from BT telling him that his current bill was at £800 at that point he realised that it would be cheaper to send me an airplane ticket to come for a visit earlier than what we spoke about.  So October 27,1999 I flew from Los Angeles to London for a 3 week vacation.   Was great to see my friend again where we actually had our first kiss felt so natural.  Well, 8 days into my vacation on my Birthday November 5 my husband got down on one knee in the middle of a resturant and asked me to marry him and 3 months later to the day we said our wedding vows.  What a whirl wind relationship but I would not change anything it was brilliant.  Nothing was ever discussed about me staying or us going back to the USA, seemed natural to stay.  In January 2004 our daughter was born what a joy she has been in our lives.  She is the miracle baby that doctors told me I would never have.  But than tragedy struck our lives.....Sunday June 28,2009 my husband was on his way home from the shop when suddlenly he had an clot that burst in his brain and sadly he passed away Tuesday June 30,1999.  It has been tough since his passing, my daughter has become angry that he Daddy is no longer here (she was a real Daddy's girl).  I am currently disabled with no cartlidge in my knees it makes it very difficult to walk, sit enjoy life the way I used to.  I have been trying for years to get back home to be around family as we have no one here in the UK.  This is the first time I have tried using a fundraising site to help us get help to move back to the USA.  Thank you for taking time to read my story and for any help that you are willing to give.  Trisha x
