Honestly, I really empathize. My oldest son is severely autistic, I feel a terrible void as well, my youngest doesn't have a functional brother. My husband has no desire to adopt, since what we went through with our kids (my typical boy was speech-delayed). I'd like to adopt a typical preschooler, if possible, so we don't have to go through the whole speech development thing, but he's done. I don't think I can change his mind. It's a real heartache all around, and I would really love another child, not to mention a brother/sister for my son. He cried terribly when he saw an adopted Chinese baby girl in a restaurant recently.
