Intial Interview

I was so nervous, I actually threw up.

When the SW arrived I made her a cup of tea and when she saw me shaking she put her hand on my arm and told me that she was sure everything was going to be fine.

She asked me my name, age, date of birth. She asked about James, about Alexander and my other miscarriage/stillborn children. She asked about Haiti, and why I chose it. She assured me I could adopt from there as long as it was done properly.

We chatted and she wrote down lots of things for about 2 hours and then she left.

I threw up again.

I am so relieved that the first hurdle is over.

She said she'd review her notes and phone in two days (tomorrow). If her decision is yes, then I will be sent an application for the homestudy. She said that it was doubtful that the decision would be no.

Pray for me.
