night, i was talking about the apprehension, will he make it, will he come out? how ill will he be all those kinds of issues. saturday morning, we spent another hour between 5:00 and 6:00 a.m. finally i got her to settle down to be positive and hopeful. she is a very strong woman, very spiritual, very strong christian, strong faith. she said, every time, trust the lord, trust the lord. but my last comment to her at 5:59 a.m. was, the waiting is almost over. i feel so terrible using those words now. because two hours later she got the call that pierre is no more. in spite of that, she s been con doling us saying she s devastating but we, too, must be devastated. she said she felt very sorry for my officer manager who did all the negotiations in yemen and the tribal leaders who put their lives out, i feel sorry for them and i thank them. she told me again today.
