If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at lsucat@home.com

His parents are willing to let someone have him with no question asked and I means with no question askes. Please help me. I can be in touch at (714) 317-9482 in California. Or I can be in touch by e-mail Ahoang4@csulb.edu

Apparently, there are only a few lawyers in the country that take care of the international adoptions. If you are in the USA, your travel to get there will be alot quicker though and you will only have to stay for about 5 days. So it really all depends on what you prefer.
