Thumbs down No update.... DAY 2... sorry


Well, I know you are all waiting to hear what came of the Minor's Court on Monday March 27th. But your guess is as good as ours. We have no news at all as of this evening.
I was at my Bible study class today. Everyone was asking about Memo. I told them what the latest was and they started with suggestions... Contact the US Embassador to Guatemala.. (how? Where?) Contact the State Department... (again How? where?) Contact Oprah, she knows people in high places. (She has bigger things to do than help bring Memo home) Contact the media. ( DH doesn't want to upset the main team for fear they will stop the adoption.... like last time we tried to help them.) SO.... What's a Mom to do? I am sooo frustrated and discouraged. Sorry to sound so negative.. Seems to be my only mood lateley.
You all have been so wonderful and constant with your prayers and support. I can't thank you all enough. I guess if any of you know anyone above, please PM me so I can try... I have to try everything. We can't quit unless we have tried everything... Thanks so much. Sorry this wasn't anything good. I will keep you posted if we get any new at all.

Hugs to all of you.. Still praying for all of you too. Good luck everyone...

I can't image how frustrated and tired of this situation you must be. I don't even know what to say to you.
You and your family and Memo are always in my prayers. Hang in there...

So sorry

I was just reading this and my husband asked about all your brickwall headbutts. I showed him your timeline. We are both so sorry your going through this. I am hoping for something soon, it's so wrong for Memo to go through this let alone his loving family waiting for him.
