Leaving in a matter of days.
I've haven't posted because I 've been ill.  My son Jake today admitted into LSU Oshcer's Hospital. This afternoon after running from my own Dr carrying Jake to be scoped. Praying that his is not cancer also. Jake has been battling Chronns disease and C.F..  He has been dealing with blockages and stomach pain.  Weight gain is slowly increasing. But he started throwing up again.  Praying his upper and lower tract is being freed from these painful uclers.   Tomorrow this scope will give us some answers.  My health also not as I wished.  So much to worry about.

We are down to just days.   And praying Jake is out before I leave to travel.  He will be with his Daddy and loving siblings as we traveled.  Older siblings taking shifts to help Dad keep the boat/crew at home okay.

Normally I focus on fundrausing but this week it was impossible.  Very soon it will be going on two years of paperwork, travel and worries.  We applied for grants and loans.  But still waiting.  Airline tickets purchased one way.  Now raising the funds for return tickets and a ticket for Gary to meet us during final week.

We will need his help coming home.  So please Jake is released and well enough by the time I depart.  It seems since November 2018 our lives have been in a roller coaster.  One mountain after another.  Broken leg, trees totaling our car, me getting Cancer, Gary bein injured, my brother passing, Jake being ill, the list of whoas never seem to end.
Please we need prayers in healing.  We need everyone around us especially pray for our son Jake.  And also Damien staying strong as we travel home.
I thank God for two special women who helped our children Chastity and Laura in helping wuth fundraising.  Marsha for driving us to the airport and picking us up.  Our many friends who donated and prayed.  And older children for caring for their siblings.

Delays and worries

2 weeks waiting  She's a very happy girl.

Full of emotions today

I am get back to blogging our journey this week and share some photos and our journey. Today I found myself missing our new little ones.  I wonder if they know we are coming back for the both of them.  Many tears as we walked out the door and said our goodbyes. This adoption has been a hard one for many reasons.  Updating documents and not knowing which child we were meant to adopt.  Honestly I just did not know what to expect once we were there. I knew this time deep inside I feel nervous and also excited.  With prior adoptions things felt so much differently than this one.  Maybe because this journey has been also a year in waiting. When we first met Barbara in hopped a little girl full of life and smiles.  As I watched her I noticed she was as nervous as I was.  But shortly we got to know one another.  I knew then inside as she sat across from us that this was our child, our daughter.. I felt inside love for a child I only met for...

One day closer to coming home

After arriving in Kiev we went right to bed.  Between moving quickly from one plane to another then a 30 minute ride to our hotel. With the time difference we had to rest once arriving.  Being up over 26 hours we were exhausted. Prior to leaving the US I had to visit my doctor.  Not any good news to share.  Only some complications had arrised.  Staying with Jake a week at the hospital and him checking out the day prior I had to have another check up myself.  Unfortunately my cancer has spread.  Problems now with blood pressure, thyroid disease and diabetes. Being placed on news meds prior to travel is not working out to well. It was awful arriving in Kiev sitting in a wheel chair.  Niko met us and drove us to get Greyson's birth records.  It was a 4 hour drive there n back   We waited 3 hours to have it printed. Greyson's birth Certificate So much left to do. Tomorrow we head to Mauripol.
