    I was a foster at 2 and a half. Foster home to foster home with my older brother until I found my final family. The agency split my brother and I up after being together through this the whole time in just 6 months. They took me first but the court was upset they split my brother and I up so they went to my foster parents and said my brother needs a home and they agreed to keep us together. My guardians wanted a sibling group because they had space. I’m now 24 and my brother is almost 30. I still see my biological parents. I feel like my guardians are my saviors. I now have 4 brothers, one biological and 3 from the guardians.

    I love that he expresses that there is of course some difficulty with adopting such a traumatized child. Too many people try to play up how beautiful adoption is in order to get more people to do it. But I think having realistic expectations and recognizing difficulties is way more beneficial to helping to encourage others to adopt.

      I’m glad for that too! He doesn’t have to worry about nightmarish experiences from evil demons, kudos to the cop for not turning into a blind eye and leave him in the hellish nightmares unlike what the cops did to Gabriel Fernandez.

    You are truly a wonderful human being, and I'm so glad you and your family welcomed these two children into your lives and have given them the love they so desperately deserve. It's also refreshing to hear something positive about policemen for a change. I was married to a New Orleans policeman for 20 years who was on the force for 30 years, and I know for a fact there are many good ones out there even though it seems we only ever hear about the bad ones or comments from people who have a negative view of them. You are definitely one of the good ones!! A true hero!!

    Thank you Officer, and your dear wife for allowing your hearts to go beyond “self” and taking these children into your home and lives. Raising kids is hard enough as it is, (but so worth it). I pray that your children will be accepting and compassionate from your example. May you ALL be blessed in life. So grateful to hear your story!
