Patty,

This is a wonderful thing you are doing for Henry. It is hard to make decisions like that...it is so wonderful that you are able to put the emotional tie that bonds us to our babies aside for the best interest of Henry. I am very proud of what you are doing....& I know you are too. I know how much it hurts to think of not having your baby around.....but knowing how much better off she will be in the long run is so important.

It is great to be able to keep in touch.....that helps in the process too so that you can see what a wonderful life Henry will end up with which is much better than just handing her off & never knowing how she is doing in the future. Knowing that you are helping other people by letting her go......is a wonderful feeling that can help take away the sadness of her not being yours.

Way to go Patty,
Debbie
