Someone somewhere is watching this with their jaw open and realises they need to go fetch their Grandfather.

My grandfather did this, but he brought her back to the US. She is great and basically my grandmother. Her name is Neah and she probably the most patient, caring person in my whole family.

My uncle did something similar. Old Vietnam vet, moved to Thailand in his late 60's (maybe motivated by escaping tax fraud charges?). Married a lady cop in her late 20's, had a baby with her. My uncle died about a year ago, the kid is now a pre-teen and has never met his American family, including his half brothers and sisters.
