I am not familiar with the specifics of Korea. Usually medical issues are a concern for the countries policy, not specifically the agency. That is why your told you might be accepted. I would be concerned if some agencies are telling you straight out no and others are saying maybe. I would carefully examine any agencies policy you signed with on a "maybe" to be sure in the event you are turned down you are not out your money and you have other options. I would also thoroughly investigate the agency you choose, for the country you choose. Yahoo groups has a great resource for this, look under adoption agency research.

On a side note, the agency you choose can be anywhere in the US for International not just in your state and medical issues wouldn't be a state related thing. For most, finding an agency with a great program in the country you choose will be difficult in your home state. International has gotten to be quite difficult without any challenges to overcome. If I were you I would probably consider domestic as an option as well.

So sorry you are going through this and hope you find the option that is best for you. Best wishes to you and your family!
