The Call for the 2nd Interview

Before I get into the phone call, just wanted to let everyone know that I have changed the background to "Love Letter" because this is our "love letter" to our child.  I don't plan on changing it anymore.

Last week we had another "hiccup" in our journey.  My cancer doctor was to write a letter on our behalf.  He told us that if we didn't receive within 2-3 weeks to call and request it.  I called twice to request this letter and finally received it.  I turned it in to C.C. who talked it over with her boss, Karen.  The letter was "just the facts" and didn't give any prognosis.  So Bethany called the doctor's office but was not satisified with her talk with the nurse.  She asked me to call his office and see if I could get him to write another letter with a prognosis.  We, Arthur and I, both thought that this was the deal ender but C.C. kept saying that it wasn't.  We had to wait thru the weekend before we could call the doctor's office.  On Monday morning I called and left word for the nurse to call us back.  She called later that afternoon and we talked about the letter that was sent.   I told her about what Bethany had said.  She informed me that Dr. Finan had written a letter on our behalf but that was not the letter that was sent.  She said that she was printing his letter out and would have him sign when he came in.  Tuesday, the nurse called me to let me know that our new letter was on the way.  We received it today and it has a prognosis and everything that Bethany was looking for.  YAY!!!!

Also, today we received a call from C.C.  She called to schedule our 2nd interview.  This will be the seperate interviews.  I told her that anytime would be good with us.  I let her know that both of our employers know that we are trying to adopt and both are supporting us.  I told her that if we had an appointment at 10:30 in the morning that both of the employers would say "OK!"  She said that Bethany was having a seminar this next week (March 25th) and she knew that her mind would be on the seminar and asked if we could schedule it for the week of the 29th.  I said that would be fine.  She then asked what times were better for us.  I asked her what times she had opened.  She said she could see us on Tuesday morning or Wednesday afternoon.  I told her that Tuesday morning would be perfect.  She also asked about the letter from Dr. Finan.  I told her about the mix-up with the letters.  She was excited to hear that a new letter was on the way.

God knows what is best for us and He will provide for us....for ALL of us!
