It would be much easier (heart breaking but easier) for a family to decide to go to China AFTER or during the treatments than it would be to find out after the fact that they have to stay in China for an extended 6 months.
At least the family would know in advance how long they would intend to stay, and be able to make plans accordingly.

I totally agree. I wonder if it has anything to do with bait and switch or 'trying to slide' some of the TB pos through the system. Just a thought.
As a family that has an immuno-suppressed child here at home and wanting to adopt, I am glad they are doing this. I just wonder if there is a more effective way...?
