Hi,
This thread is for the support and prayer that Sadie Ann originally requested and we would appreciate it if everyone would respect that. If you want to debate there is already one going on Sadie's original thread that you can participate in, but please don't bring it here. Thank you.

Sadie Ann's original post....


Pray for us, our son is home but trajedy has struck

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our son was born this wk and he is home now. We are more in love that words can express. But trajedy has struck and bfather & his family are fighting. They pledged their support of adoption and then showed up birth day and made an ugly scene. If this family would of good character it would be easier to survive the blow, but they are not. Violence in family, etc. Bmother worked hard through out pregnancy to gain bfather's support and she & her family are also crushed. If we lose him he will go back to bmom. We know she will love him dearly but we also know she'll have a fight on her hands with bfather & family. She loves her son and worked so long to come to chose adoption for him. She wanted the life we were commited to provide him. We feel so bad for this baby, bmom and us.

In addition baby had some medical issue and was in hospital 5 days. We stayed by his side and went through each medical test with white knuckles. Fortunately he is fine, stabilized and home with us. DNA is around the corner, and we don't expect he'll be with us for long. (The story is long, long, long).

We are crushed beyond description. Every moment with him at this point is a gift from God. We need your prayers. We are looking for a Christmas miracle.

I know we are in good company and others reading this know too well of our fear and pain. We welcome your prayers, support & advice.

I really wanted to express my true feelings of how bad I feel for you. You have always been so supportive to me and many others. It is an aparents worst nightmare to take a child home, only to have to possibly return him. It has to be extremely difficult to take part in his birth, nuture him in the hospital, have him home only to learn that you might lose him. My heart is just breaking for you and I want you to know that I am here if you need support. I am here for YOU. Someone forwarded the following poem to me when I was in need and I wanted to share it with you, if I may.

*****
The path to a dream is paved with sacrifices
and lined with determination
And though it has many stumbling blocks
along the way
and may go in more than one direction,
it is marked with faith.
It is traveled by belief and courage,
persistence and hard work.
It is conquered with a willingness
to face challenges and take chances,
to fail and try again and again.
Along the way, you may have to confront
doubts, setbacks and unfairness
But when the path comes to an end,
you will find that there is no greater joy
than making your dreams come true.
(written by Barbara)

Many hugs Sadie and thank you Amom4life for starting this thread. I really wanted to express my true feelings to her.
