Some dreams don't come true.

Hi Everyone,



TJ and I wanted to let all of you know that our adoption process for Ethiopia is now over. We were informed that our agency has just filed for Bankruptcy. We don't see that we will regain our money that we have paid for the process. We are not sure of what the future holds for us as we invested all of our funds into this adoption. We are completely devastated right now. We wanted you to know what has taken place but ask if you could let us contact you about this matter as it's going to be a very raw conversation for us at this time. TJ and I need time to grieve the loss of a dream of a family we wished for.



Thank you,



Kelly and TJ

I am so sorry...what a difficult time for you both. I hope that after time has had a chance to soothe your wounds, you will find another path to the family of your dreams. Both of you and the children of Ethiopia will be in my prayers tonight.

I am both speechless and shocked at the turn of events today. I am so sorry I hardly know what to say except I am thinking and grieving for all of the families today who's dreams have been shattered. I hope that there is another path for you to take to find your kids......
Blessings

I am so very sorry for your family and I hope that your dreams will come true in some other way, a new door or window will open as this one closes.
My thoughts are with you. I cannot imagine how you are feeling.

Saying I'm sorry does not even come close to describe what I am feeling for you both. Please know that Adam and I are here to help and support in any way that we can. Please call if you need someone to listen or a shoulder to cry on.

Oh God Kel, The moment I read this today I started bawling and thinking of you and TJ. I am so sorry. I know this is another loss of a child and I would do anything to change this for you. I can't stop crying and I am here WHEN you are ready. Supper, drinks, kleenex. Please call me when you are ready. I will be there in a minute.

Thinking of you and sending my biggest hugs~~

Hi Kelly,
I keep thinking there has to be something we can do. I will continue touching base with any and all contacts I know in the adoption world and will see what can be done. Surely there's a way for our families to continue the dreams of a family!

I'm thinking of all of you!

Its so hard to say anything about this. We can't imagine how you are both feeling right now. Upset, Angry, Confused are words that come to mind...we will be thinking of you both and praying that somehow though this door has closed that a window will open.
