Hi, I am new to the group and decided to stop by to say hello. I am the mom of 11. 4 bio and 7 adopted children. We adopt children who are deemed "unadoptable" by CPS due to their disability, behaviors, and/or age. My children are 24,21,17,16,15,14,11,10,9,6,&2. We are a multicultural family with disabilities such as CP, epilepsy, PTSD, FAS, SBS, drug addiction, bi-polar, blindness, tube-feeding, and a host of behavioral issues. Surprisingly enough we have a pretty well run family, and tons of love to share with each other. We never let our disabilities be our crutch, or an excuse, and I really found this support website to help deal with my drug addicted child, but am finding a whole other host of great support groups. I am excited to be here and looking forward to meeting some new people and hear their stories. =) Jenna "You don't have to control your thoughts; you just have to stop letting them control you!"

"This has been one of the most supportive places I have ever been. I found MDJ by mistaking looking for drs to help me with my many health issues and since that day over a year ago I have found a tight nit little family that keeps me going when the times are tough and offers me a place of retreat to share my successes and failures with others. I get to see the humor and seriousness of what I experience as well as the resources to learn about my health conditions. Thanks MDJ" (peasha)
