Angry I Can't Take This Any Longer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For crying out loud! How much longer will this take?????
I hate that we are all left out here hanging with NO FREAKING UPDATES!!!!! OK, well not as many as I'd like!!! I wish they could give you an e-mail update every week. Even if it were to say, "sorry, no news yet"!
At least I would know that they haven't forgotten me.
I HATE THIS WAITING!!!! AND I AM LOOSING MY MIND!!!!!!! My heart is so broken.

Sorry, I just had to blow a gasket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No words

except that my family is thinking and praying for your case. It is incredibly difficult to think that you are still in investigation/PGN or whatever you call it... Hang in there and keep us posted.

I'm sorry that your case seems to be taking so long. Tonight is chat night and I hope that you will consider stopping by and letting your forum friends support you.

You are in my thoughts, as well as many others on this forum.

Suzzane

I pm'ed you!

I am so sorry - I wish I had a magic wand - or if I had one wish - I would wish for Memo to be home - what an extraordinary young boy he is. What an extraordinary woman you are.

I have to tell our forum friends a story - Suzanne has such an increadible spirit and heart. While visiting Memo in Guatemala - she took the time on Christmas eve last year to take photos of all the waiting children in our childrens hogar and send them to us so that we would have a Christmas photo to see on Christmas morning. Our little guys had the cutest Christmas hat on with a sweet smile - all thanks to Suzanne! What an unselfish heart you have and it is evident in more ways than one. You are a very special lady and you deserve for this nightmare to end and I know that Memo knows you are doing everything you can to get him home and that you love him - I am sure he feels our your love and caring spirit that you have.

God, please, we need you to interviene here - Memo needs to come home now. Suzanne and her family need Memo and Memo needs them - NOW! AMEN!

I'm firing up that hotline to St. Jude as I write...

Oh Suzanne...You have every right to blow...

(I dunno about the updates thing... My agency sent us an email many weeks, it would say "Update" in the subject line, and I'd get all excited, and open it up, and inside, would be one line:
"You are still in PGN." or "You are still kicked out of PGN."
AARGH! I don't know what's worse...no news, or cut and paste no-progress news just to fulfill some sort of requirement.)

Anyway, please know we're here for you in every way...

Suzanne,

I am so sorry for what you are going through. You have every right to "blow a gasket"

Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and I will be looking for your "OUT" post. Don't lose hope it will happen.

I am soooo sorry that you have to go through this! Can't those people understand that Memo needs to come home!

BebitosMama's St. Jude hotline might be just the thing!! We'll keep saying our prayers too!

This delay just seems so senseless. Maybe it'd make some sense if anybody would give you adequate information. Memo needs for you to hang in there for him, though. That sweet boy and your entire family are in my thoughts each and every day...hoping, hoping, hoping that he's home with you soon.
