Guest guest Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 ee, We're actually doing our adoption the opposite of most....We're starting the process with the intention of adopting a baby with clubfoot. We still need to decide which country and fill out all of the paperwork, then get a referral. So at this point I don't know which baby, but I will definitely keep everyone posted! Best, Joanne W.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Hi , It turns out that there are always clubfoot children to adopt in whichever country we would like to adopt from, at least according to our agency. For example, in China, I have seen figures that there are 1,000,000 children in orphanages, 80% have some type of special need (cleft lip/palate, clubfoot, spina bifida, heart conditions), only 10% of those are adopted... Will definitely keep you posted... Thanks for the kind words! Joanne W. Message: 2 Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2004 18:28:38 -0000 Subject: Re: spina bifida-Joanne Joanne!!!!!! I just saw your note about adopting a clubfoot baby in your signature line!!!!!!!! CONGRATS! Do you have an actual child selected, or are you just intending to adopt and waiting for a clubfoot child to be available for adoption? Keep us posted! & _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?
