Thank you

Now is as good a time as ever to say thank you to some special people. To my mother for never asking the question why, but for accepting our choice and supporting and, in some instances, defending it ever since. To my sisters for their support especially in difficult times. To my nieces and nephews for their enthusiasm, their smart questions :) and their patience! To Cindy, who was there from the first step, literally standing next to us at the postbox when we posted that first letter. To all my friends (they know who they are:)) for patiently listening to me venting my frustrations and for always telling me it will be ok! To my stepchildren for being who they are. My biggest thank you goes to VCT in Bangalore and Raju's foster family for looking after my son during all this time. Knowing that Raju is in good hands, receiving care and affection makes this wait a little less hard. Eventhough this has been a long journey, I have met some amazing people on the way. Thank you!
