Andy and I have now had our medicals with our lovely GP. Just waiting for the verdict on that from Staffordshire. We've also had some more information from Birmingham, including a DVD about adoption. Andy spoke to someone at work who thinks that Birmingham are really good.
She does fostering for them. They have about 150 children waiting for adoption at any one time, half of whom are part of sibling groups.
Do we stick with Staffs, or do we try somewhere else? I really don't know what to do any more. Birmingham's information seems really good. The person I spoke to, however, was deeply annoying. Although to be fair, that doesn't separate her from anyone else I spoke to at adoption agencies that week! Lots of kids sounds like there's the possibility of a good match. Apparently if we swap, the new agency will probably want its own medical doing.
To have actually completed our medicals feels like a good step forwards. Goodness knows how long Staffs will take to come to a decision, mind. And if we were to start the process with somewhere else, our current medicals would probably have to be re-done anyway. It will be good to get an opinion as to whether we would be seen as fit medically to adopt.
P'raps we'll wait and get the medical back and then decide...
