Thank you Jill!

Great job keeping us updated and setting up the GFM account.

Hopefully Honkus and fam finally get a chance to exhale.


thank you ;)
Finally talked to Randy. They are getting settled at Airforce Base now. They are exhausted, but relieved, and ready to wait out their 3-day quarantine.

I'm sure he will be posting on here as soon as they get rested up!

Looks like they are still 1.5 hrs from March AFB

I’m betting this is the flight The Honkus is on. Should be arriving around 11:45 central time tonight.



this is the one i am watching as well
just to clarify...the add'l $$ beyond the $4400 is to help them cover expenses during their 11-13 (?) day quarantine, as well as flights from Ontario, California back to Rhode Island. Donations or well-wishes are equally welcomed! He was asked not to discuss flight details..so we really don't know which flight he is/was on. I last talked to him at 9:30 this morning, and they were checking in baggage, but they had not gone thru customs and the flight had not yet arrived. He has not responded since the last message at 9:30.

That’s surprising. $1,100 is actually pretty reasonable


i thought so too
yes, $1100 each. they have to sign a promisory note prior to leaving wuhan. the shitty thing is they wont get $$ back on the original flights they had booked for friday that are cancelled. but you cant really put a price on your family's well being. if they said $11,000 a piece, we would find a way to make it work
i totally agree with the gopro idea. may get confiscated, but worth the risk
the only way i/we can relate to his situation is maybe just after katrina or 2016 flood. that apocolytpic feeling, except he is not at home with family. he has to have a balance of patience and persistence to see this thru.
last update i got from my mom, an hour or so ago, is that the diplo plane was delayed. they had to turn around and go back to yichang, as it was too dangerous to hang around and wait 12-16 hrs in wuhan at airport. they are sleeping now and will have a better idea of itinerary when they wake up
i see that! this is crazy! my wechat has been locked, so this is my only way of communicating with him. yall are amazing. he is lucky to have such a vast support system.
I dont think a GoFund me is necessary at this moment. Unless they hole you up in a makeshift jail and demand ransom..I think we can cough up the money to get yall back and safe.
