Emergency Prayer/Good Thoughts/Postive Energy Request!

I'm interrupting the discussion of Sunday with today's complete insanity. Naturally, no letter or court order. I called the adoption office around 4:30 pm to confirm this, and they asked a lot of questions about Vindya, how she was doing, was she happy. They are very concerned, they said. I said that she is fine, which is true. Has her moments, but getting better, and when she isn't anywhere near the sisuvihar, she's fine.

They said that I need to take her back to court tomorrow morning, and that she shouldn't cry, because it will make a bad impression on the judge. I asked what time, and they didn't know, I should call the advocate and she will tell me. I have called the advocate half a dozen times, and no answer. My best plan is to show up around 10, which is the time we've been there previously.

I just got off the phone with Deb (India program specialist) and she confirms that this is not at all the standard procedure. I shouldn't have to go back to court, they should simply issue the written order. I called Gaya and asked her to come with me, which she very graciously agreed to do (really, that family is worth their weight in gold). But I'd like any positive thoughts anyone can send my way starting at about 10am Hyderabad time. US Central time is 10 1/2 hours behind, so starting around midnight. You'll all be up, right?

Seriously, my stomach hurts and I have a very bad feeling about this.

    Prayers, postitive thought a nd a few war chants will be lifting towards you and Ms V. I am so sorry--these folks really need adoption training 000 (that is lower than 101)as soon as possible.!!! Sending hugs,

  5. Hi Juli,

    I hope the prayers, letter, your doctor friend there all do the trick. I stayed up really late hoping to hear good news. I am praying.
    The lunch bunch are all praying, too.
