Hi!
I just had a quick question for you.. where are you located in Germany? I'm in Stuttgart, Germany and trying to get information on how we can begin the adoption process. We are also wanting to adopt from the States we are from Texas. I was wondering if you could point in some direction that would be of help to us. We would greatly appreciate any help or info.
Thanks so much.

Hello all,
we are currently in stationed at Ramstein, Germany. We have a wonderful support group here at Landstuhl. We meet once a month. Believe me when I say, the group helped me keep my sanity while adopting our daughter in November of 2002. We did adopt her through Colorado. We are having a Adoption Symposium up here in the Kaiserslautern area in May. Please e-mail me if you have any questions about that. It is a great way to learn about adoption, where to start, the cost, and to meet a lot of different adoption agencies that travel here from the States. If you have any info on Adoption Support Groups here in Europe I would love to get in touch with them.
Thank you,
Susi
I forgot to mention that our Support Group is sponsored by the Red Cross. SO you might want to get in touch with the American Red Cross where you are and ask them if they are interested in sponsoring one there.
