Failed Match
We had a failed match this week. I've been pretty tight-lipped about it because despite the fact that the mom said she was sure, I didn't have that feeling. We've been matched for about 2 1/2 months and in that time got very close to the parents. She had the baby and now wants to "try" parenting. We are broken-hearted, but know that she has to do what she feels is best.

I'm so sorry.
I have been there, and trust me, the pain does lessen over time. Just make sure that you take time for yourself and allow yourself to grieve this baby.
