From what I have read here if that I would not miss he graduation for anything. And I also have seen that maybe you can got to the airport a visit with her there. My son will be staying in GL but if he was a grad and go I would still go just to see him for a few. It has been a long 3 weeks and I know when it is 8 weeks I will really need to see him.
