[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 280419"] I feel very similarly to what Nancy has written. The chances of improvement are very slim. Are you the type of person that can cope well with this? There are other children in the home...how willl they cope with this stress and with an overly burdened mother? You are aleady feeling fatigue, surely adding another special needs child to the mix will only greatly increase issues and likely overwhelm you and your family. Do you have many good friends and relatives at your disposal who will lend you a hand should you need much support down the road? I agree with Nancy, should you decide to go forward with this, ask about adoption subsidies to help with likely financial needs. However, we know that money does not solve all the problems. It can just be of help. Please be aware of this. Wishing you wisdom, peace and insight. [/QUOTE]
