I'm not sure where the plane will take me but I know my grandchildren are there waiting for me. For me, that is the most important thing.

It's been a long process but finally we will be reunited in the USA. My wife and I lost four children during the war, before we left for Burundi.

We were forced to flee and lived for many years in a camp in Burundi.

We were well received there and all of our basic needs were met. But now we'll be together as a family again when we arrive in the USA. Everything will be new and I don't know what to expect but I can't wait to see my grandchildren again.
