Hi,
I am sorry for the way they did things. The only thing I can figure is that the family would not be able to afford the expense of further travel and they wanted to do things as fast as possible??
Regardless of why, I don't think it would have hurt for you to say goodbye again. Even if your fs cried, he should have been allowed that hug and final "I love you" from you. I think it would have been better if you had been allowed to be the one to introduce him to his knew family...let him know they were okay. In fact, seeing you around the other family and being able to cry in front of them and hug him in front of them would be a good thing.
I hope you are feeling better. I don't think we ever get over the loss. My husband and I haven't started foster care yet, so I know we have a lot to look forward to. Your are in my prayers.
