Ghana closure-vent

I have posted here a few times before, but mostly lurked.
We were pursuing an IA from Ghana and had reached the point where we were literally next in line for a referral. Well, we found out yesterday that Ghana has suspended all adoptions.
We had been considering transferring programs anyway, but this still feels like a kick in the gut. And taking into account that we had already tucked aside pretty close to all the money we'd need, but that amount is less than half of what we'd need for the other program, it really stinks.
Looks like we'll be starting all over, and kissing goodbye 10k in the process!

Our Adoption Blog & Fundraising Efforts
Heading to China in November 2014 to bring our son home!
TTC #2, Operative hysteroscopy March 2011; IVF #1 long lupron protocol April 2011-cancelled due to poor response; IVF #2 flare protocol May 2011=hospitalization due to abdominal hemorrhage during ER and no fert due to MFI issues. Moving onto international adoption from Moldova January 2013!
Thanks for all the kind words! Our agency is working with us to transfer to another program and recoup some of the funds, but the other program we're interested in is considerable more than we have. We'll be doing some serious fundraising (and a WHOLE lot of praying).
We've seen no indication of how long the suspension could last, but we were pretty fed up with the program anyway. This is our sign to jump ship.
