Hi Ladies

Hi Ladies...

 

  I hope you are all well this evening.  I am actually posting looking for some advice for my sister.  They just received news that they will not be able to have their own biological children w/o the help of IVF and they have decided that IVF is really not the road for them (neither one of them are calm people and they have several hurdles to face before IVF is even possible) 

I was just wondering two things:

 

1. What is the best way to get started with the adoption process?  They both feel bombarded with information right now and Im a little better with the computer and I thought you ladies would bemost helpful.

2. As her sister is there anything I can do to help?  What kind of support do you ladies look for?  What makes you feel best on your worst days?  

 I was told since I was 13 children would not be in the cards for my body, luckily for us we are a miracle case and are expecting our 2nd miracle.. which I am sure is more than a  little bitter sweet for my sister.  So id also appreciate any advice you ladies have on anything I can do to ease this time between us ( I have to say she really is pretty good about it but I know there are times it is very hard for her to be around me understandably)

 

I really appreciate any advice/help you ladies have to offer.  I wish you all the best of luck!!

    My adoption story isn't the normal, but for advice I would think that she would need to decide what type of adoption she is looking for, and then find an agency. Such as international, foster to adopt, or domestic? I would think that once that's decided (or at least looking towards) you could better decide where to start.

    Not sure if that made sense, but what I'm thinking is if you want to do foster to adopt, you'd start at social services etc. HTH, good luck!
