Gamanit, going into too much detail would break confidence so let me put it like this.
A child that thrives on unconditional love
A childless couple willing to take your child Shabbosos, Yomim Tovim, overnights, including 70+ hour stretches, all without notice or charge.
Treat her like their own daughter.
One day out of the blue, you call this babysitter and say No thanks and don’t call us again.
Fast forward a few years, this babysitter hates you with all her heart for what you did to her. They can’t function because this child is not around. The pain is so much to handle that you have no choice but to turn this pain to hate so you can get on with your daily life.
Medical problems are cropping up from physical to psychological. Doctors bills are mounting. Appointments are being scheduled 5 a week sometimes more sometimes less.
Then you say to yourself: You know what the hatred and anger is no longer worth it. Hashem, I am moichel these people B’leive Shalem.
Within a half hour, (it was early in the morning) one of us was on their way to the first appointment which started to settle everything down.
And then I realize, Thank you parents of this child, for giving us the most amazing gift you could ever give us. You gave a childless couple a chance at a family. We still miss her, We will always love her and when you’re ready, she still has a place in our home.
