This morning I went to the Paide Hospital, where Rosie has been since Wednesday night. She is doing good and she was released form the hospital. I was supposed to take her to Psychiatric hospial right after court. Since she had littel fever last night, they did not want to admit her there. I talked to her psychiatrist on the phone and we will go to see him next Monday. Rosie is coming with me to my friend's apartment, where we have been staying.
COURT
This was the day we have been waiting for! This was the most important day of my trip!
We both were questioned separately at the courthouse by Judge. Rosie went in first and she seemed to be there for a long time! (like 20 minutes at least!) I was waiting behind the door and praying! (God, give her the right words to say...let the judge make right decision etc.)
Then it was my turn.
The first question the judge asked was obviously about her recent suicide attempt.
"What happened?" She asked...I gave my version of what I believe, could have happened...
I believe maybe someone from her school said something to her. Maybe teased her about going to Psychiatric Hospital for 2 months or something like that and as fragile she is in her emotions, she just broke down.
Other questions were about her father, who is in jail...About my relationship with Rosie, how long have I been in her life etc. (since her birth! was my answer....) The Judge also asked about America, how am I going to take care of her and her schooling. Also about my family, are they supportive of this and some questions about my religion.
Later that day Rosie's mother also met with the Judge and talked to her. She told her that she wants to surrender her parental rights and agrees with me being her legal guardian!
So far so good!
The only problem roght now is her advocate....
Her advocate wants to talk to Rosie's doctor about what happened. To make sure that the suicide attempt was not because of her not wanting to go to live with me. I am not sure, when she will talk to him and if we need to wait much longer until everything is finalized...
I am glad for things going good and cannot wait for this whole thing to be over!
I do miss my family and my home! I am so ready to come back, but not until things are taken care of!
