O.K. ya'll its time for true confessions.I havent seen my family in many years and gave my two girls up for adoption to my brother and his wife 10 years ago.Last week they found out that my brother has stomach cancer and as of yesterday it had spread and today they had to remove a testicle.I finally found the courage to call him after all these years and when I called the hospital he answred the phone.I cried like a baby he said my girls are beautiful and that if i wanted to that I could go see him in the hospital.I never looked back after the day he got my girls because it broke there heart because they couldnt stay with me and I swore I would never brake there hearts again.My husband is taking me to the hospital tonight.I am scared and in fear that I will fall apart.I am clean and sober now and so afraid that I wont be able to handle this.I need you guys.Ya'll have been my family when no one else would be my family.I need encouragemant and I am asking ya'll for help.

I am sure they are excited and just as nervous to see you. I know it must be difficult, but they really need you right now. Just be a shoulder to lean on, it was really brave and strong of you to give them up so they can have a better life while you got yours together, and you did!!! Congratulations!!! You are a very strong person, and this is a "good" thing to be nervous about. I will pray for you!!! Good luck.
Edit: It is amazing the advances in cancer research. If it looks grim, ask if there are any research opportunities he can participate in. Best wishes

Remember a few things that you just told us. One you are clean and sober. very important things. You have a husband that is taking you to the hospital so that you can be with your brother who took your kids in. Also very important. You may be scared to death but guess what you are going. You need to be honest with your girls when you see them. Just tell them you were in no shape to take care of them and that you turned them over to the best people you knew. Dont tell them you want to be back in their life. Ask them if it is ok, after you ask your brother and sister in law. dont sound like you are back and taking over because everyone involved will resent you. Just relax and talk. It wont be easy but guess what you have faced and overcome worse so this should be a piece of cake
