Dear Hannah's Mom, How heavy your heart must be. As Mom's all we want to be able to do is care for our sweet children. To not be able to must be very difficult. It has been a number of months since you posted but I wanted to touch base with you and see if your circumstances have changed or not. We have been praying about adopting a little girl for a few years now. We have 5 sons and 1 daughter and all of us have been praying for a little angel to be added to our home. I am no longer able to have any more children). We have been married for 12 years and had always talked about wanting to adopt when the time was right. I was adopted at 6 weeks and have always believed that adoption is the most sacrificial choice a parent can make. I am hoping that you have been able to work things out but if not please feel free to contact me/us if you have any questions or just need someone to listen and pray with you. Blessings, Tricia Dixon

I will pray that you make the best decision. Anyone would love to raise and take care of Hannah - I am looking for an "older" girl myself and I'm telling you, there are people out there than would LOVE to take her and make sure she has a wonderful like. You are awesome! Hang in there!

Hi Susan, My name is Susan, too. I wanted to tell you that many people---or at least I am---considering adopting an older child, even one with a health issue. Personally, I dont want to go through the long nights and diapering----I just want my adopted son from Korea to have a brother or sister, to call his own. I worry that he is an only child and has no one but my husband and I. I dont feel like my family is complete. The child might be 7 yrs old or 3. Maybe God has put this into my head....but I really want to adopt an older child....you know, not an infant.....I know it must be so hard for you to even write what you did!! Hard isnt even the word!! I work for a very large insurance company and talk by phone with the disabled, on social security, and even though that hasnt happened to me personally, I know how difficult it is.....having a health issue and having it standing in the way of everything is a tough thing to deal with. It's really a major life issue, I know. I don't know what made me come on here today---I just had this feeling I should look around this site. Good luck with your health, and I will pray for you. If you ever want to talk, just let me know. Your mental health is very important to your physical health, and talking about your decision and how you came to it may be helpful---or even just talking....

God bless you!! That's all I can say. You must have the heat of a thousand angels! Just to know you love you daughter that much...and want to give her a better life. I pray everything works out and you are in better health. Be blessed and be a blessing!

You sound like a very courageous woman. It breaks my heart that you are in this situation.
