Hi! Thanks for the reply. We haven't really explored our options much.. I
just
found out in February (while trying to figure out our IF problem) that I
had
endometrial cancer, so had to have a hysterectomy. I'm trying to recover
from
that, then we're going to look in to our alternatives. Right now we're
pretty much
open to anything, we'd prefer domestic because of the travel involved in
international
adoption. We've also considered surrogacy, since everyone I know seems to
want to
carry a baby for us. We always thought we'd want 2 children, so we may
just
do both!
Anyway, any information you could send me about adoption would be very
helpful.
Thanks so much!
Amy
