BROKEN DREAMS


I FOUND OUT TODAY THAT BERALI'S BIRTHMOTHER HAS DECIDED THAT SHE WANTS TO KEEP HER. I GOT AN E-MAIL FROM MY AGENCY EARLY THIS MORNING. IT WAS HEART-BREAKING. I AM DEVASTATED. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I HAD GOTTEN SO ATTTACHED TO HER AND WAS GOING TO HAVE HER IN MY ARMS IN 19 DAYS. HOW COULD THE BIRTHMOM DO THIS. I GUESS SHE REALIZED WHAT A SPECIAL BABY BERALI IS AND HOW BEAUTIFUL SHE IS. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE HER AND CONSIDER HER MY DAUGHTER. I KNOW THAT I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET A REFUND. IF I CAN I WILL TAKE ANOTHER REFERRAL. IT WON'T BE THE SAME AS HAVING BERALI IN MY ARMS, BUT I HAVE TO DO WHAT I HAVE TO DO.

    Hi Ginger-

    OH MY GOD- My heart goes out to you and Berali. There are no words that I could express for your loss. I am crying with you...

    ALSO-

    I just spoke to my agency about this. According to my agency...

    It is only Ethical that Faithful Adoption offer's you another child, and to put your case priority to anyone elses. Also, they should transfer all the fees over to the new child. The fees you paid basically were for nothing. And of course, the agency should see that you ARE NOT charged for any DNA fees. Basically, you will only have to Re Due the POA.

    I know this doesn't make any matters better. Because there is only 1 Berali Grace... May the Lord protect her in what life brings to her....

    Hugs

    Ginger -

    I met you when you were here in Dallas with Ellie - and I just wanted you to know that my heart is breaking for you.

    There aren't any words that can make this better - just know that you are in our thoughts and prayers as you go through the next steps in your journey.

    Never give up on your dream.
