Such a relief, I can hope again!
I have been very non-existant of these boards lately because our cases have been experiencing trouble. Our PA's has been under investigation and it has just been heart breaking for us. As selfish as this sounds, I just couldn't bare to see normally processing cases when I had no clue when and if ours would move along.
Well, I got the best news yesterday. Both cases are out of investigation and have PA!!! I am just so excited and hopeful again! Also, Gideon's wonderful foster family e-mailed me this morning with the BEST pictures of Gideon. This is especially nice because his last pictures I got from my agency were so sad. He was upset in every one. I am just so thrilled the Gideon has such a loving and caring foster family. I can tell they love him to pieces! So, I anticipate getting back to PGN hopefully some time this week. Gideon has one KO already and I am hoping to get out soon (boy, can you tell my optimism has returned). SOrry to ignore you guys. Happy to be back! Julie

Congrats!
Congrats on the good news. Several times I had to take breaks from the boards because we were stuck for so long. BUT...I also know how good it feels to finally see some positive movement in the process! It is such a good feeling.
Congrats!!! I hope it is smooth and fast sailing from here on out! Jennifer

I'm so glad to hear that you're back in the game!! The waiting during the investigation must have been so difficult. I hope you're out of PGN quickly and can bring those babies home!!!

Congrats on PA.
I have been selfish many times just like you. It's so hard to watch others move past when your stuck. I don't think there's anything at all unusual about that. We all have to self-protect as best we can in this difficult process. Glad you're back to the forum though.
