LOA delay/ Waiver refusals NOW??????

This is how I am feeling today after getting bad news yesterday from our agency that now CCCWA is questioning our waivers that the agency PROMISED they could get, and DID get in order to get us PA 96 and 45 days earlier!  The agency has said that they will be mad and fight for us if we are not given our LOA's.........because they gave us PA, with knowledge of the waivers, AND because we have been waiting so long and would have waited a lot longer if the agency hadn't sent someone to check on them.

I am SO SO SAD today!  If they shut down our adoptions, I WILL post about it so that everyone can know.............but then I will probably leave fb for a VERY long time.  I know the hateful things that have been ALREADY said about me and I can't even imagine what they would say if we didn't complete the adoptions................PLUS, just the grief of it all is going to make me want to leave.  Seeing everyone else bring home their children and knowing my girls would not be MY girls would kill me!  Just the thought of it possibly happens makes me want to cry.

People are trying to remind me to stay positive and have faith.  I am TRYING!  :)   I keep reminding myself of the record times for PA that I got on BOTH girls ----- the little one got PA within 1 day (weekend in between) and the older one got PA within 5 hours of FINDING the file to lock it!  UNHEARD OF!!!

I am trying to keep this in mind.  I am trying to know and believe that HE wants us to have them (and so we will!) --- between a loan and cc's I think we are even almost fully funded for BOTH!  (though the loan repayment will be tough)  We've also applied for a grant and HOPE to get it to lessen the loan burden as well.

I've also been trying to think of how fast they will allow you to turn around for a "reuse"..........MAYBE they'd let me bring home the younger one (because she is LID and therefore I'd need to have less waivers) and then IMMEDIATELY turn around for the older (without having to wait or redo any more items besides a HS update with SOS and Consulate approval too).  Gary could go for the 1st and I go with Isabelle for the 2nd.  Getting 1 child with 1 parent traveling (and no one else but Belle paying for her own ticket) isn't too bad.  And it would only add the cost of the extra week in country with hotel/food.  Though that's more $ it's better than having either of our girls not come home.
