Two years ago on this very weekend I was happily filling out the paperwork and getting all my documents together for Nepal. I had my homestudy completed the September before and the agency had assured me that they would be ready to go when Nepal opened on Jan 1. Well, they were a little late....and it was the begining of a nightmare. Everything just went down hill from that day forward.
Last year at this time I was in a state of shock and disbelief at the news that Canada had put a hold on referrals from Nepal and were investigating the program. We were warned that it was highly likely that Canada would close the program. It was the begining of months of tears. And the end finally came in June.
It was also at this time last year that I first investigated the country where my dossier now sits. It would take me a few months to sign up, after the emotion and the fighting for Nepal was done.
I still think about what happened and how it all played out. I think about how I had bad feelings about the Nepal program all along. How stressed I was. And how hard it was when it ended.
I have moved on now though. And last weekend I actually shredded my Nepal dossier, or the copy of it that the agency returned to me. It took me along time to get to this point. I felt that it was time to finally let it all go.
Now, in a year from now, when I look back to Feb 14, 2011, I think it will be a happy memory because I think a referral is coming.....soon.
