...okay, yes I am going to be a downer. I just found out today that I was kicked out of PGN. I know there are many that have been in longer than me, but I am so bummed (and depressed and irritable!) My agency said I would probably be resubmitted next week , but then expect at least a month. Great, I should be back just in time for their Christmas holiday. Usually, I am very positive, but this has really thrown me. I guess you always know it can happen, but you hope so much to sail right thru! I had even gotten to the point where I expected the good news everytime the phone rang! Curse those pre-recorded political messages. Anyhow, I get my DNA was not authenticated. Does it really have to take 4 weeks to discover that? Anyone that can provide any pep talk would be greatly appreciated. My friends and co-workers just don't really get it. Try not to think about it...ya, like I can do that! Jenny

Jenny,

I'm really sorry you got a KO. They can be so frustrating and heartbreaking. I'm not sure if I can offer anything that will make you feel better (after both of my KOs I went around feeling grumpy with the whole world). For me it got better after a few days and then I started checking my e-mail (even though my agency calls) and listening for the phone to ring all the time about a month after I went back in.

I hope your wait is very short and you hear some good news soon.

I just wanted to say I care and I am so sorry that you are at this frustrating part. I would totally be frustrated too. Hang in there!

So sorry to hear about your kick out.I know how it feels to hope and "feel" like you are going to be one of the families that sails on through. We are hoping for that right now. I know that it could very well happen to us also. There is so much you can't control and for a control freak like me... well... it's a little hard to take.
I hope you will be right back in and get out as quick as possible. Sending good vibes your way!!!!

I'm so sorry. I'm not into PGN yet, but I'm dreading it. All I can say is you have every right to be frustrated and disappointed... so go with it. I have a good friend who adopted during the last Hague fiasco, and all she keeps telling me is that it will all be worth it in the end and you will barely remember the setbacks. I find that hard to believe, but it gives me hope. She also said that she would let herself have a 5- or 10-minute pity party, and then she'd move on and look forward. I'm not very good at that technique, but it sounds good.

PGN waiting simply sucks and KO's do too. Hang in there! You aren't alone and this WILL end.

Hang in there. It will happen. I can imagine how frustrated you must be! Hugs

You're not alone. Many of us have been there too. I hope you get a quick fix and you're in and out of PGN soon!

Jenny,

I'm so sorry. I have no clue why it would take 4 weeks to discover that, but it is discouraging. I hope you get back in and get some good news soon.
