Our DNA test and social worker interview was done on 9/7 so woohoo on that. Her TORCH tests (bloodwork) came back all negative so yay for that but we have no idea why her liver and spleen are enlarged. The hematologist said he will monitor it. We have not heard back from the cardiologist yet. Dr. Aronson and Dr Montiel think she is fine but are just ruling out all the possible culprits.

Nancy I sent you a PM because I am so happy about your referral!

First Major Meltdown

This weekend I had my first major meltdown complete with all the water works. Poor DH.

My head says, our case is moving relatively quickly. Our children are 3 1/2 months old and we've had preapproval for a month now. My heart says, "I miss my babies!! Any amount of time feels too long."

Everything seemed to converge last week between work, and this proposed law, lack of information from our agency, friends getting pregnant, and all the preschoolers coming back to our church building where I work. I lost it.

I don't know how the long-time waiters do it. I miss my babies sooooooo much.

Poa

We just received an email from our CW saying our capital (Olympia) has already sent our POA back to her and it is off to the consulate in CA complete with a FedEx envelope so they will send it directly to GC and it should be there Friday. Whew! That is a long trip for a little piece of paper. I am very very very happy!

On to DNA
