| I am an adoptive mom of biological siblings. We adopted through the foster care system. I can answer questions about foster/adoption, both the emotional and "practical" aspects. I can also answer questions about having contact with the birth family, as we are in contact with our children`s biological relatives, which can be difficult at times. I can help with questions about adoption subsidy -- my case worker said ours was the most thorough application she had ever seen! We worked very hard to get our kids what they deserved -- so can you! | Available
