Harsh realities

A friend on whom we've leaned for advice and support has lost her referral. Suz, her husband and daughter first visited Vika in Jan 2006 and was, 19 months later, still waiting on accreditation and court. A russian couple came forward last week and decided to adopt the daughter that Suz and husband have been waiting for. This is absolutely devastating for them, and for all of us that know them. If you want to offer support here is their blog: http://russianadoptiondva.blogspot.com/

While all of us on this crazy rollercoaster know that the adoption isn't final until you have the babe in your arms, it is still a shock to hear a story like theirs. Suz, I'm praying for you all.
