Oh Cathy..I cannot tell you how HAPPY I m for you! I did not realize you were a nurse....sure does make you go in with you eyes open huh...we almost know TOO much....
You are just amazing to handle this alone..what a strong woman you arei! I will never forget the heartbreak when we lost our referral the morning we were to meet her..of course and then we got our Hannah.and we were on top of the world! The extreme feelings that one can go through is 24hrs is crazy isn't it? I am so so soooo happy that the MOE remembered you and your daughter!!! We need those "angels" along the way....
Again, I am soo excited for you and can't wait to hear more! I know how frustrating it is not to be able to make contact with home. Hopefully the rest of your process goes very smoothly and all of your dreams come true!!
