After FIVE, long years, it's hard to get too excited, but we are preparing for the doors in Kyrgyzstan to open once again.  Hope is never lost completely.  It can't be - there's a little girl there who depends us and frankly, if I may be completely honest, I depend on her.  You see, my heart isn't whole without her.  I love my kids, ALL of them and yes, I am happy with "the ones I have," but she is mine, too.  She is my daughter and I can't stop fighting for her.  We have reason again to be hopeful and that means getting our ducks in a row, getting our paperwork updated and raising funds so that we can storm that little pancreas-shaped country at a moment's notice and get.her.out!

A lot of people believe we should've given up years ago.  A lot of people are tired of hearing about it.  Some are no doubt unbelievers.  I can't say that I blame them.  BUT, for those of you who have it in you to fight with us and to believe in miracles, there are ways you can help.  Every penny we raise gets her closer to home.  You can check out our fundraising tab for ideas.  You can watch our sidebar as well.  Very soon, there will be something super exciting happening over at Altynai's Legacy Fund so please pop over and catch up with Suzanne.  You can read about many of Kamila's friends who are still waiting and some of her friends who have been lucky enough to make it home already! 

Stay tuned..................

I am dying to know about the fundraiser! I read your story on the other blog. I am hanging on edge to see your daughter come home! I cannot imagine waiting that long. That is some major "labor" pains. You are making a difference to her, no matter who else believes it!
