A Matter of Time

Some simple math and I realized why we will hear by 9:30 or 10:00 a.m. No two ways about it. Add 15 hours to PST and you'll see that if the judge makes his recommendation early one morning and sends it to St. Lucy's by 10:00 a.m. Taiwan time, the best they could do would be to call/fax/e-mail Heartsent at 7 p.m. No one in the office, so we wouldn't get the call until the morning. And if the judge makes his decision at the end of the day and sends it on to St. Lucy's and they call by 5:00 p.m., that would be 2:00 a.m. here in California, again no one to take the call.

Therefore, no matter when the referral takes place in Taiwan, we won't receive a call until first thing in the morning the next day. I can handle an hour of stress a day.

The only variable to this equation would be the off chance that Heartsent is closed in the morning (say because of a flash flood, sickness, or termite infestation) and they don't get in and check their messages/fax/e-mail until the afternoon. But we won't consider the variable, because that does little to assuage my anxiety.

The call is coming!!!! I wish I could make it get here faster for you guys. I'm sure that the waiting on your end of the referral is much harder b/c you already have pictures and video of your child. I will be thinking of you and hope that it won't be much longer. Does that mean we get to pick a new date?
