Our home is in grave danger. The bank accounts are closed. We are wiring money to the home to keep these children watched, fed and protected. We have 50+ children that need to be cared for. We do not know how much longer this can go on.
The judge that has holds on our children has the paperwork on her lap. It took us since May - yes, 5 months - to get the paperwork to her. Now, that she has the ability to release these holds, she does not want to be the ultimate decision maker. So she sits. So we sit and our children sit without families.
Our director is worn out, her staff is worn out, and the battles mount daily along with the bills. The rent has not been paid in 5 months, the newly constructed home sits empty because they cannot get electricity for it, and the newspaper printed weeks ago that the home is for money laundering. None of this has been proven - but in a country where you are guilty before innocent - this is all it takes to shut down a prominant children's home.

I am so sorry this adoption process has been so hard. It's so wrong! I'm praying for you and your daughter today.
Hugs,
Stacy
