KK -- I'm still feeling so much of what you wrote in your last note. I've had 5 miscarriages and I believe that a failed adoption feels so much the same. Of course, we each cannot compare our pain, but we do, each, understand. I'm glad that my words helped a little. At this point, to already feel you might stay on board and wait for the right baby and right situation is very hopeful. When we waited for our ds (our first adoption, following the miscarriages), I felt broken. Once he was with me, it made sense. That's very simple-minded, but it's how I felt. As a mother, I could bear what I needed to in order for my children to be with us. The losses still hurt, but my son helped me be able to understand.

May you move forward, KK, and may your child be born soon. Stay strong -- or may you find your way back to strength. susan
