Wednesday, Oct. 22
As of yesterday, it's been 6 weeks since I left home and traveled to Burkina. It's a long time to be away from home and a long time for me to be away from Robert, Maleah and Haley. Of course, Haley is ok I'm sure, but it's a bit harder for Maleah. It's beginning to seem to her that it's going on forever. Plus the fact that we are moving at Christmas back to Arkansas for 6 months only makes the time apart harder for her.
I would ask you to pray for us that we get back together soon. We've tried every way in the world to check on the status of Arouna's citizenship, but all they can tell us is that they are behind but the
paperwork has been received. As much as I dread taking Arouna to cold, cold weather, it's important that we are all back together again (well, at least the 5 of us that can be together).
We did receive some really good news today that all of our medical tests, procedures, exams, evaluations and prescriptions for Arouna are covered at 100%. Praise God! When we made the decision to adopt special needs, we knew that our insurance was good, but didn't know if we would have 100% coverage. We assumed that some things would be at 80%. We were beginning to get a bit stressed about it because Arouna has had over 10 appointments, procedures and evaluations over the last 4 weeks. And many of them are quite expensive, like an MRI and EEG, plus appointments with a neurologist. So we were praying that God would provide what we needed to care for him once we got him home. And He has. Again, we are so blessed.
