Very upsetting news....

I'm very upset right now. As some of you know I contacted my agency about a week and a half ago to see what was going on as I had no news from them. Recently I discovered that they had email problems so I resent my message last night trying to ask what number on the list I was and some kind of info. I finally did hear back this morning wth an apology that they are getting lots of messages etc. and hard to get back...that in itself left me upset, as I have suggested to some of you, I have been concerned at how big or how many things the agency is trying to deal with and wondering what is going to be left unattended...well I feel my file is left unattended....I was told in late Nov. to update my documents, which I did in record time, and that a referral should come within 3 months....well now I am not told what number, I am only told soon and that there are a "few" families ahead of me?? when I thought I should be next, and now am told that between referral and travel to expect at least 5 months and this is the most devastating part, to not expect to travel before early 2011!!!!....so that would mean the 3 months to referral they told me in Nov. is now stretched to possibly not getting a referral until August, ???? I am just not understanding anymore...I have sent an email back....but am just so upset at the moment, I just keep thinking this is such a cruel process for all concerned and I really don't understand how timelines are calculated anymore.....

  1. Hang in there! Adoption is not for the faint of heart as the saying goes. It takes unending amounts of patience and more patience. I hope you get your referral sooner rather than later. Then there will be the next, and trust me harder, stage of waiting. We're all in it together!
