It is very unfortunate that I have to close this thread because of some uncalled for posts. We need to remember that no one should be condemed for making a decision that is theirs to make.
This forum is for support, not condemnation of each other. Please remember that.

It's over....
I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and encouragement through this terrible process that we have been stuck in. We have decided that we just can't continue to be led on by false hopes and unfulfilled promises anymore. This is the second holiday season that we have had to endure, and it has just pushed us over the edge. That and the last email that we received from the "outside help" that really hasn't helped at all, that said that this process could go on for another 6 months or more. I just can't do it anymore. I have cried more tears than I thought were even possible, and am continuing to suffer actual physical pain, but this situation has become absolutely ridiculous, and with no end in sight, has also become unbearable. Our agency is currently under investigation, and I am hoping that soon, no one will ever have to suffer at their hands again.
Best wishes to all who have the strength to continue the fight.

You are in my thoughts. I know how very difficult this decision was, because we faced it and considered it too. I hope that you will be at peace and know that it was the right thing for you and your family. Be good to yourself.

My heart goes out to you. This process is so emotionally tortuous for those who have a long and complicated process.
God Bless you. Mary |

I am soo very sorry to hear this. WE lost our first referral through an unethical agency(which is now closed down) and it was really hard. And we decided to take another plunge and go with another agency(which was awesome) and brought home a son.. But it was a hard decision to make. We werent even that far.
I will be praying for you and that He will give you peace. HUGS-Doretta
