  • Adoptees who reunited with their birth parents as adults?

    My fiance is adopted and has talked about wanting to see if he can find his birth mother. He thinks he'd like to meet her and definitely get a medical history. He's a little nervous about it. I'm curious about several things. How did you go about locating them? He was born in 1980 and he thinks he was born in Central Florida his adoptive parents received him at just a few days old. ( sorry about the wording there I couldn't think of another way to say it without the word receiving not sure if it came across right.) I believe the his adoptive parents have the name of the adoption angency they use but we think it's out of business. He's contacted an angency that wants $500 to see if they can find any information out on his adoption and birth parent contact information. Does that seem right? If they can't find anything that's money out the window. Also if you're comfortable discussing it can you tell about your experience meeting your birth mom and/or dad as an adult.

  • Mother of the groom is ill and may not be able to make the wedding.?

    Okay so my fiance's dad is in a wheel chair and his mom has now been hospitalized for the second time this year. This time for blood clots in her lungs and is now at a rehab facility for a few weeks only hopefully. Our wedding is in October so it's a ways out. However we're getting married on the Disney cruise. Our families rooms are already booked. My parents are paying for his to go because with their health problems the don't have the extra money to do it. This wouldn't be a problem if we didn't already have about 15 guest who have booked the cruise already. They have until the middle of July to cancell without penalty. She may be just fine and more the able and willing to go.

    My question is would it be wrong to ask people who booked to cancel if she isn't? Of course before they'd face a penalty, they get the money the reserved back. We wouldn't feel right getting married without her there.

  • Problem with car overheating when idling?

    I have a 2002 Saturn SL1 and for the last few weeks when I idled at a light for a while or in a drive thru the A/C would start blowing hot air. Well today I was at a drive through and the line was long and the A/C blew so hot I shut it off, which I know now was a mistake, and caused the engine to get very hot it did not steam but my temperature guage was in the red and I had the red warning light come on. So I pulled over and shut the engine off and opened the hood. My fiance met me with antifreeze but there was plenty in the car. After about 10 minutes the temperature was in the normal range and I had no problems the rest of the way home, but also did not have to idle for anytime after that. The A/C was even blowing cold again. This is the first time the car has gotten so hot I had to pull over. Any ideas on what the most likely culprits might be? Thermostat, compressor, water pump?

  • Help name a tiger cub.?

    I have a friend who is trained to raise tigers and recently received a new white bengel tiger cub. He is about 7 weeks old and they are having a hard time naming him. They are looking for a name with a meaning behind it. For instance they once had a cub named Takoda which means friend to all. If you do have a name suggestion please add the meaning of the name as well. Here is a picture also if that helps. To me he looks like an Arnold but I don't think they will like it. Your help is appreciated. He is not a pet just thought this would be a good location to get ideas. http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa3/DataByte_19...
