From "What A Hard Decison!" To "Thank YOU Jesus"

I am beginning to to get a little stressed out! Almost 9 weeks and still no sign of my I-171H. I am filling a little depressed about the whole situation. I am at a complete stand still until that paper is put in my hands! It can not be to much longer right? I am beginning to wonder if we have been lost! I emailed Mrs. Jackson yesterday at Alexanders office in Nashville I am hopeful she will have some news for me today! I have no idea how long it takes for her to get the info from CIS! Does anyone know how long it will take her to get back to me!

As you all know we decided to live CHI do to the long wait. So as if it is not enough CHI who told me from day one that if we used them for our home study if for some reason we decided to leave and go with another agency we would be able to use our home study that we paid for. Not to mention I was told by someone when I contacted them to let them know we were leaving Yes I was right that we could use my home study! So at the beginning of the week when I received an email stating NO I can not use my home study! No I will not be getting any refund for the money that I had paid for my home study!!! So I am thinking " WHAT"!!!!! They are out of there minds!!

The next day I am contacted by several families that have left CHI lately do to the long wait as well. However in each and everyone of there cases they were able to use there home study and were help in the transition to the other Agency. I really did not expect anything less for our family!

So they put me on a conference call and they tried to give me all kinds of excuses #1 We changed our policy months ago. Well if that is the case first off why did you tell me just last week I could use it. 2nd of all we should be grandfather in if they changed there policy after we signed on! Excuse #2 I have a hard time believing some one would have told you that you could use the home study with a other agency! Well that is funny considering I was told by you just last week I could use it. Excuse #3 in order to be in compliance with Hague we can not let you use it.

So the Bethany agency will be helping me get everything striated out! But what a pain! I was so very disappointed with the way CHI has acted towards my family it is just not right! Not to mention they should have stopped taking applications months ago for the VN program! over 22o on there waiting list and still growing! How is that ethical? I say GREEDY! No wonder they are able to afford the Fancy Web Site! Well I have vented and hopefully I will not have to ever give them a second thought!

It is really sad the last post was what a hard decision now I am thankful to Jesus that he got me out when he did. There is no Guilt about switching to W! There is nothing but joy, hope, pride,and excitement and the knowledge the W will be helping bring my baby Jack home to me sooner rather than later!

So please say some prayers for me! That all my hair does not fall completely out!!!
