In your original post you asked us to think about how we would handle such a tragic situation as you described. It sounds like your friend was prepared..very prepared, but even under the best of circumstances, there are very trying times. Im sure not having family close by is very difficult. It sounds like she did everything right and got to the embassy staff who assisted her and fortunatley had travel insurance to cover the inevitable costs associated with this event. Only time will dictate the outcome but all of us that travel need to be aware of what to do in similar situations. Thanks for posting the story and we allcertainly hope all the best for your friend.
