It's dark in here

I feel like I am being kept in the dark about what is going on with the status of my surrogate journey.  I was told at the confirmation of our match that the IP's had 10 days to fund the trust so we could start working on contracts and move forward.  Once the trust is funded we can share contact information so we can start growing our relationship.......... and N.O.T.H.I.N.G. has happened.

I get that things can take longer since they are international.... but a month?!?!

Late Sunday night I sent an email telling my Case Manager I wanted to know what was going on...... apparently they are just as frustrated as I am.   For reasons unknown the IP's have not responded to email or phone messages and have not made an attempt to fund the trust account.  If funds aren't received by the end of the week they are at risk for losing the match.   The agency's call, not mine.

That would suck.   Besides the fact that we would have to start over, I have gotten my hopes up and told my children the IP's names and my son is excited to have a penpal in Germany.  I am emotionally attached already.  :(   I'm praying that things will fall together in the next few days........ if not I'll be looking for a new family to work with.


Rumor has it that a couple months ago that Madonna was looking for a surrogate......... My husband thinks that would be fun to be her surrogate and wants me to put a request in for her.    

Yeah.  Right.
