Have a great weekend and here is The Platinum Club List
Here is (so far) the people who are interested in being members to the Platinum Club. Please pm me to let me know if I need to add or change information. Also, anyone is welcome...let me know if you want to join.
We are the Platinum Club and the names highlighted in Gold are the graduates- our heros. Hopefully we can check in with a thread weekly or bi-weekly to see how people are doing. I am excited about this .Keep in touch...I am going to try to find something to do this weekend to keep busy. We may find out what they are investigating on our case next week. My DH and I decided to fight to the finish we have energy and if we have to fight for 1/2 year to 15 years we will bring Gabby home. Have a great weekend...

Jennifer-
I am honored that you included me as a graduate. One of the reasons I stay on the forum is to hopefully lend support when people are frustrated. I am hoping that the longtimers still in process see a flood of good news ASAP. -Kathleen |

Thanks for doing the list Jenn! This is a great idea. Let us know if you find anything out next week about your investigation!
Also, I have a question for the other longtimers. How long is all of our paperwork good before it expires?? Thought I'd ask since it will probably creep up on me soon.

Suzanne...hello
. I thought I would hear from you. No this list you will not be on top because it is alphabetical. This list is not to see who gets out or not...it is just informative (for once). It is a great way to see what people's status is and what to pray for them.OH...I did not hear from you yesterday (and I did not see much posted from you except the little good news for Memo). I developed the list and thought, "man, she is already out of PGN". Seriously, I was even thinking, "well, at least she can be a graduate and help support us". No lie. That is my prayer for you that you are a graduate soon. Jennifr- I am bumping this for you so that you can get an answer to your question...I only know my is expired by I don't know when it did. Jennifer

Jennifr, I'd like to know about expirations for paperwork also. Does anybody know? The fingerprints are good, I believe for 15 months and how long is the homestudy good for? I was thinking 18 months, but I am not positive about that. And what if you switched countries, and then had an amended homestudy sent? I'm sure I knew the answers at some point but it's been so long now, I've forgotten and been just a little bit stressed out and thinking of other things. We are going to visit our little guy this week, though, so we're very excited about that. We're taking our two girls down to meet him this time. It makes me nervous to take them because what if we end up losing our referral or something? It would be devestating to them! And us! I just can't think about that happening, can I?
