I’m taking him to lunch Sunday.

I’m giving “him” a pseudonym; NV. Those aren’t even his initials. I want to respect his privacy, gain the benefit from the collective experience here and have everyone know how rewarding foster parenting can be. I suppose some may know someone in similar situations and this may help.

In the meantime I’m relearning how to deal with the bureaucracy. I’ll have an interim report before the weekend. Hopefully I won’t be crying “uncle” in frustration.

I appreciate all your input.

Best,
Grady
