We've been alerted to a specific situation where we feel the child is at risk (and we certainly do not want families or other agencies/attorney to become involved in an adoption that has no chance of completing). From what I understand the supposed mother has bounced from a few different attorneys offering her child for adoption and then disappearing. The embassy is aware of the situation and is hoping to talk to the birth mother. If you are in process of adopting a little girl who will be three this month and has the first initials C.L., weighing approximately 27 pounds and 35.5 inches tall, please contact me privately. I have more information, but will not release it to anyone unless the profile matches.
FYI: Some of the proposals have different ways of "registering" birth mothers so that this is traceable. I certainly hope that these are doable in whatever new laws appear in Guatemala.
