75 - Hey Nurse
My eyes opened to a flashing light, and I was moving. I was running … no I wasn’t the one running.
I felt like I was on fire, I felt like I must be dead. Voices, voices everywhere.

I just saw lights flashing by, someone breathing heavy and the pain. Ohh, there’s the pain.
“I got her, I got her!”

We’re the last three, now we just need a plan for us to get out.”"Honestly, I still think my plan is a good idea, it’s just a matter of getting someone with some money, that travels, where it won’t arouse suspicion that they are here,” Marcus said.“What’s your idea,” I said.

None of us slept, we were all just running on adrenaline at this point.The pilot on the plane was going to meet us and smuggle us on. Javi said the pilot, who was this businessman’s usual guy, was actually retired Air Force and happy to help us. Javi didn’t think it was fair that the pilot not know what he was getting into. I couldn’t believe the lengths people were going to, for us ... for total strangers and it kept bringing tears to my eyes.Marcus arranged for a van to take us to the airport and my heart was racing. Javi didn’t let go of my hand and he was making me hot and sweaty.

I tried to figure out how to ask Javi to marry me while we were in Europe. I didn’t care if he put a rubber band on my finger, I was beyond in love with him and that was all I needed.There were sandwiches waiting for us on the second plane and we pretty much inhaled them. I also had an ice cold coke, and it was phenomenal. With a full belly and a hopeful mind, I fell asleep with my head in Javi’s lap.“Wake up baby, we made it,” Javi said whispering in my ear.I opened my eyes and looked out the window, the sun was coming up.“A new dawn, a new day,” I said.“Exactly why I don’t want to wait baby, I had Toby find a pastor on base, if you’ll s

After Fletch left I sat by myself on the couch for a few minutes, and tried to process what just happened. My head was spinning and I felt like I was going to throw up. I knew Javi would press me to know what we talked about, and I don’t know if I could tell him Fletch wanted to propose.Would he second guess himself?Would he always wonder in the back of his mind if that was who I really wanted?He was always so nuts whenever another guy was around, knowing that another man offered me a ring, whew that’s heavy shit. I was torn, but I also operated under the assumption I would likely never see Fletch again.In the end of my own pep talk, I decided not to tell him. I picked the rubberband up off the arm of the couch and wrapped it aroun

We decided to let Corey in on it, and he and Javi both were putting up $10 million each.As we started to get plans together, we were hopeful this initial investment would be enough to fund maybe three or four villages until we could start getting other donations. I had never been so excited and consumed by something, it gave me such hope and it was the breath of fresh air we all needed.Corey’s dearest Perry, of course acted as our counsel and was helping with the paperwork to begin a non-profit. Javi had a lead on a 70 acre lot in Doylestown, just north of Philly and only about three hours from Corey’s cabin.
