I did the math and it took me 4 months and 19 days to go from being undocumented to having a green card.
I don't know how I did it, I don't know how I managed to keep going.
But I did. And I'm slowly coming to the realization that it is a fucking monumental achievement.
It 1000 percent was monumental. I am so so so proud of you.
I'd like to give acknowledgment to @singingdogz.bsky.social for helping to review the letter that I sent to the passport office in Ireland, an absolutely catastrophically hard letter to write that laid all my shit bare.
It's the reason they gave me a passport.
You are a fighter. You are inspiring. ❤️
Sheer spite and willpower to not let life or other untoward governmental powers in stopping I know I'm just a stranger on the internet proud of you all the same :)
