I'm going to try to get through this post without cursing.
Still nothing definite on the Swine Flu impact. China did post an offical announcement but it is difficult to decipher Looks like those folks that already have a referral and travel approval might be able to travel at the discretion of their agency. Anyone with a referral but doesn't yet have travel approval might have to wait who knows how long. It is still unclear what impact this will have on referrals. Oh, and it's now a holiday in China so we won't know anything more until next week. My heart goes out to those that have a referral but can't travel. Having that picture and not being able to travel would be the last bit of torture I could stand.
Some think maybe China is leaving it open to see the state of things when they return from their holiday weekend. Now if we could just get our media to shut the hell up maybe things will seem better next week and we can just freaking get on with this!!!!!

Our heart goes out to you and your husband. The media certainly has sensationalized this Swine Flu "pandemic". We hope your remaining steps in the process become easier.
So much for not cursing. But I commend your restraint, could have been a very "blue" blog. Larry & I are praying that the whole Swine Flu is very short-lived & you can move on up to the next step & actually get a picture!!! Can't wait to see what Lulu looks like.
Hang in there Karen and Jon!!! As usual, the media has made a mountain out of something of a molehill, but as everything else, they will soon find a new "catastrophe" to focus on. Try to look at this as a bit of extra time to get everything just right before you go to get your little girl. I'm betting that once you get her picture, you're going to be so excited, that you might not be able to focus on the little details that need to be done. We're praying for a quick end to this flu, and to a speedy referral!
Oh, and by the way, Caleb says that since 'hell' is in the Bible, it's not actually a curse word.... :) Of course, I told him that when we get called to the principal's office because one of the kids said hell at school, -he's- the one that gets to go :) Hang in there guys....the end of the tunnel is still in sight!
