We were heartbroken the day we found out that we could not have children. It was a Dream of mine as much as it was of my wife Karen to have a large family. So we had decided that we would adopt. Seems simple right? What a crushing blow when we found out that it was anywhere from $20,000 to $60,000 to adopt a child. It still does not make since to me how you have a child that needs a home and a family. A family that needs to share their love and life with a child. And governments and agency's making a mint off of both. I am not going to pretend that we are poor. We live a middle class life. We are more than capable of raising a child without much financial burden. But this is not a car that can be financed for 72 months. This is a child that needs a home and of course the government and agency want the money now. I know their are people who are going to bash the fact that i would even request help in this fashion. Many of the websites that i have visited said to have fundraisers and get donations, even they know that it is beyond difficult to accomplish this task. I love my wife very much and i think that every woman should have that ability to be a mother if that is their wish. As well as each man a proud father. What would you do if the person you love and share your life with had a need that was beyond your reach would you ask the world for help. I Love her that much, to reach out to you and pray you find it in your heart to help us. We are not getting any younger and sometimes in life you have to lose your pride and just ask for someone to help. Even if it is just $1 or $2 from each of you we could give a child in need a loving home. And finally fulfill our dream of having a family. Will you Help us bring that dream to Life. Thank you and God bless.
