Dear Pat,

My sister and husband are on their way home from Kazakhstan without the five year old they had planned to adopt. My entire family is quite shaken by their decision. They had been waiting for over six months and had already spent three weeks with this boy. My main concern is this child's welfare and emotional health. According to their emails, he was already calling his daddy "PaPa". Do you have any idea how many of these orphans have failed adoptions? I am not sure how many places their are in the area but it seems that more precautions needed to be taken not to get these children's hopes up only to be let down. I am an adoptive mother and cannot possibly understand how they came to this decision. I would appreciate your input.
