in Adoption

Well its been a hell of a 2011-2012

Here we go.  My husband and I have been together since 2000.  We dated, got enagaged in 2007 and married in 2010.  Our very first pregnancy was 3/4/2011 and I was due on 11/7/2011.  My beautiful son Caleb was born on 7/29/2011 due to what we thought was severe Pre-eclampsia.  He lived for 58 days in the NICU and passed away on 9/21/2011. 

Thought my life was over, but thought my husband and I would try again in 2012. We starting to "try again" in December only to be told that I needed a kidney biopsy because the protein in my urine had not come down and if it really was pre-eclampsia this would have already corrected itself. 

Kidney biopsy was 1/11/2012, results were given to me 1/16/2012. I was advised that I have a kidney disease called FSGS.  It is not cureable, but treatable,  And it means that my kidneys are scaring over slowly.  And because of this it does not filter the toxins out correctly causing the excessive protein spillage in my urine, this causes High BP, and that is why they THOUGHT I had Pre-e. 

Was advised by my Kidney Specialist to lose 100 pounds and maybe we could try again.  So I started to look into adoption just in case.  Went to my OBGYN on monday and was advised that having children would be detrimental to my health, if I had them EVER,  And it is not advisable that I even try or I could die, or again so could my child.

So......... hows that for suckage ? So now my husband and I are going to persue adoption.  I have no idea where to start,  We live in WNY.... Buffalo to be specific.  And I pretty much feel like my dreams of being a mom is so far from my reach !

Thanks for letting me intro and vent !

I know this can be a long process, So were going in head on !
