I am beaming with a huge smile as I see the pictures of Sloan surrounded by so many people who love her!! Thank you for posting them. You remind us all of how good an open adoption truly can be!
Thank you for update about Lauranda and her clean bill of health. That is THE best news!! I know how nerve-wrecking this must have been for all of you and I'm so relieved by this news. I have tell you about a student at my university who graduated a couple of years ago. He has a unique memory situation in which, he cannot remember anything that happened that day, or what he read in the books, etc. He would have to repeatedly read specific books over and over again to eventually absorb the content of the book. But, he did graduate, singled out by the president of the school as one of the most remarkable triumphs at the university. I feel for Lauranda as she struggles with memory loss but she is such a remarkable young lady, full of strength and love, ready to take on the world. I know that her life path will be rich and meaningful!
