Update

Well on August 4 we received word that our acceptance letters had been sent back to China from this point 3-4 weeks to receive travel approval and then 2-4 weeks until travel. It at times seems so unreal. THe fed ex package with Marielle stuff came on August 2 and two hours later we sent back the acceptance package.

We received on August 6 or so the translated version of another form. Her name means Bright Happiness. We are leaning towards Marielle Ming Le.

August 5 back into hospital out on August 11. Had to have hysterectomy. Doing well.

Today is my official birthday. YEAH, I guess. I am feeling better everyday. I am hoping to be recuperated enough to get on the plane to china to pick up Marielle.
