I don’t generally write extremely personal posts on my blog. I mostly reserve it for posts about business, networking, and mobile development, but I’m going to make an exception. Almost two and half years ago, my wife and I began a very long and trying journey. My wife became pregnant! I quickly went from nervous to ecstatic. A switch was flipped and I knew without a doubt that I wanted to be a father and that I was ready! I was truly excited.
Fast forward to current. Amy and I have been through two miscarriages and a fairly large amount of fertility treatments. I can’t begin to describe how devastating and frustrating it has been. It is truly the hardest thing we’ve ever experienced in our lives and nothing else is even close.
So why am I telling you this?
Well, we have decided to adopt a baby. It is a decision that we are very comfortable with and excited about. However, we need your help! We intend to do a private adoption. What does that mean? It means that we aren’t using an agency to find a child for us. Our best chance to find a baby is to let as many people know as possible. Babies are given up for a variety of reasons: financial, drug-related, teen pregnancy, etc and you never know when someone knows someone looking to give their child up for adoption. So we need your help to be on the lookout!
So what are we looking for?
We are looking for a newborn or infant. The race doesn’t matter at all. For health reasons, we are going to be careful with drug and alcohol addiction with the mother.
I cannot really express my appreciation for any help you can give us.
Brian
