ElizabethAnn Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 I know your encouragement will mean alot to Angela and Pamela, in particular, because the two of them have been challenged daily by this case... Angela has been having to call and explain and re-explain the child's needs to various adoption resources and placement possibilities across the country, interpreting Texas' adoption standards and figuring out who would need to have what done and how soon to make this happen... meanwhile, the ever-patient Pamela has been fielding angry phone calls from the hospital social worker, who (nice as she is) just cannot understand what is taking so long to get a family here and get this baby discharged?! We so appreciate the hospital's faith in us, that their worker thinks we can get any child placed "right away" but it just isn't that easy! Special needs placements done across state lines entail a million other details that must be worked out, from medical transport to subsidy to Compact to insurance issues. So every time Pamela gets dressed down, she slinks into Angela's office and sighs "any news, yet?" and Angela, who doesn't want to rush the poor folks who need time to think it all over, has to be the voice of reason, even though all of us are more than ready to celebrate the completion of this placement, for this dear child's sake!! The family we're currently hoping will move forward has several children with similar diagnoses, and we're beseeching God to please clear the way for them to come to Texas by Monday and make this little boy their own?

TheEnglishes Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Elizabeth just reading your post gives me chills. Please tell Pamela and Angela thank you for all of their efforts and for being so dedicated to finding the right placement for this special little one. His life has already started out with so much love and he doesn't even know it yet! Adding prayers for the couple who are attempting to take him home, God bless these people and clear their path. And God bless the hospital staff that they may have patience and continue to give such loving care to this child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElizabethAnn Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Thank you, all... unfortunately, the MN family withdrew themselves from consideration late yesterday, due to work concerns.

BrendaMikeGabe Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 A friend of mine told me that she saw an episode of Little People, Big World where Matt Roloff was talking about how his coalition CODA Coalition for Dwarf Advocacy actually helped to "facilitate" adoptions of little persons. They helped with the medical costs and with finding families to take placement of these precious children. I was wondering if Angela had any luck getting ahold of him to see if they had any ideas?
