Hey all. Just wanted to let you guys know I'm still here. We're still with Panama, that will never change.
Our soon-to-be former caseworker had to send us more documents (the ones I'd asked about six months ago that were missing from our packet). But because she made a mistake (she thought these forms had to be done after commitment or something), she paid to have them apostilled and sent to Panama herself. So, now, our dossier, that's already been translated is finally complete.
I dunno if our dossier has been turned in to the DNA yet....
But for now, we're just going about our lives and not really even thinking about the adoption. We've become emotionally detached. If it happens, it happens kinda thing.
I recently got a job that I love. I'm getting some dental work going, and planning some household improvement projects.
While we're in this limbo state with our case, I don't give adoption (or having a child) much thought. Of course, if things start happening, or we get any kind of news (good or bad), that will all change and I'll become obsessed all over again haha. Til then, I'm happier than I've been in a long time and that's a nice liberating feeling.
I'll try not to be such a stranger. But I do wish everyone godspeed with their cases.
Hugs,
Robin

Glad to see everyone hanging in there! Tanya do you have any updates on your case?
All the best to everyone,
Julie
No new updates here, we have been told that a possible TPR hearing may be June 24th. I emailed twice to see if that ever happened and I haven't heard anything if it did or not, I am assuming it did not, but who knows. I have also requested updated pictures so we are hoping and praying to get those. That would really help during the waiting process. Any new updates for you? I know you said you are waiting to hear if TPR has been done. We waited since Jan. for that question to be answered and it was last month that the assumption was made that it had not. It really wasn't a surprise to us, we figured if it was done that would be a huge piece of the puzzle and our agency would have known about that sooner. I am sure info is even harder to find now that things have slowed down with the DNA till Sept. Has your agency said anything to you about the DNA slowing up till Sept? I guess we need to just hang in there and keep praying for patience and serenity:) I feel so much better after Laurie posted what good care the children are getting. We keep reminding ourselves this is the only life our little guy knows, it may not be our family as of right now, but it is still a family to him. After Laurie posted about the orphanage it made it all a little easier to handle.
Thoughts and Prayers,
Tanya
