Laura Jean,
I'm so very sorry that Joey is sick. He and your family are in our prayers, both for his health and the abandonment hearing. We're praying that he recovers fully and comes home very soon!

Laura Jean,
First, my prayers are with you and Joey. Second, when Braeden was ill we were told by an insider that they will speed cases along in PGN if the situation is grave...(directly stated to us as life or death). There ARE medical visas, though, where he could stay here for treatment. My nephew actually came to this country on one and I would be happy to get you info. He is from Micronesia and was fitted for a pacemaker in the U.S. two years ago. He is still here.
Again, I am praying for you.
Megan

Literally all of the kindness have brought me tears of gratitude and thanks for people who understand.

Our daughter has a cleft lip and palate and they didn't speed anything up for us either. Good Luck! A plea letter can't hurt though..........
