Right now a special family is over in Bulgaria. Almost a year ago they committed to adopting Zack...Maria's best friend from the orphanage. This week they have had a nice visit with him, but today he told them he didn't want to be adopted and leave his new friend behind.....I'm heart broken over this. I understand how hard it was for both Maria and Zack to leave each other. I saw both their tears, the anguish, the hugs that didn't want to let go. It was such a hard day for us, I know it must have been worse for Zack. Now, he has the chance for a family, a new life, more medical care and he is standing by a new friend. The family has said they will come back and adopt the friend too, but he is being a little stubborn and saying he does not want to leave without his friend.
We are all scrambling....I have already Skyped with one of our Bulgarian friends and she plans to make some calls tomorrow morning. It is possible we might be Skyping or calling Zack tomorrow so Maria can talk to him. So much is up in the air and on top of it I'm sick. So, please pray for Zack and his family. Please pray for Zack and the family who wants to call him their son.
Dear Katherine, I have a feeling that at this point the only thing that might change Zack's mind are (video) calls with Maria. Can that be arranged somehow? Are there any administrative or other obstacles?
