We have been fighting the bank wire transfer battle for a while now and once more just as things cleared up, the same day something huge happens with our adoption.
Now that the people involved have been paid we have been asked the very awaited, but scary question...
"So, When can YOU travel?"
Of course I stupidly answered "Tomorrow if you want" which wasn't really true but I was excited about being asked. So once more the wheels have begin to turn and our agency wants us to travel soon... very soon.
BUT, and ofcourse there has to be a but. My husband still hasn't got his passport back from teh franch embassy. Now we will be pressured by every little second! We are going to have to ask for an emergancy passport... normally reserved for urgent serious famly matters (and no, the French government does not consider adoption a "serious" matter)
Lastly, they want us to go and accept the referral of the little boy I mentioned last month in my blog. But we still don't have any more information on him, his health or the gravity of his special need. I don't know how comfortable I am going to Bishkek with almost no information about a child I am supposed to adopt. What happens if once we get there we find out that his special need is more severe than we hoped for??? How moral is it to refuse a referral...after all you don't get the choice when you have a bio child.
It is all hapening so fast and I'm feeling a bit "led blindfolded". I don't feel like my agency is pressuring me or anything, I just feel a little overwhelmed by the sudden invitation to travel and the lack of information.
Well that's then news ... Let me digest it a little more and I'll write agian soon
