I extend a very special THANK YOU to Lee, Pokerchips (Deborah), M.S.W., Que, and Butterfly27 who took the time out to give me honest and most detailed responses. This is the one thing that keeps me around this board. We do have a common thread and that is our quest for better health. It makes me feel so wonderful to know that so many are willing to share so much more of themselves than what is required!!!!!

just keep in mind that rules vary from state to state and that our stories were based on "our" experiences which will give you a general idea. Once you are up and running, you get your rhythm and roll with what's happening at the moment or that day, all of those things do not happen at once. I had great caseworkers, other FP's, and surprisingly medical professionals who gave great support and advise. There will be many who will help you along the way, God will see to that. I believe that you will be okay

You're welcome. Much like our weightloss journey being a foster parent varies from person to person and child to child. I fostered teenagers so I bit off a big chuck and and I went into it with my eyes wide open.
I wish you the best with your decision and I admire you for considering providing care for children who need that extra support and love. Peace & Blessings
